nope.  your eyes have deceived you.  going WESTBOUND, the speed limit
changes to 65 after exit 10 (which is the 290, worcester, auburn exit).
it continues to be 65 until exit 7 (ludlow exit), where it then becomes
55 for the 3 springfield/chicopee exits.  at exit 3, it is 65 again.
my exit is the palmer/amherst exit (8), and i've driven the pike MANY
times.  it has been this way ever since the speed limits were changed.
(oh yeah, the I-84 jct is exit 9, and the only thing that changes there
are the 3 lanes).  so, from exits 1-3 the speed limit is 65, from 4-6 it's
55, from 7-10 it's 65, from 10-boston it's 55.
your  friendly mass pike exit number expert,
