How to unlock the Speed Demon achievement in Descenders - Definitive Guide
I found the easiest way to do this was by building your own level. Firstly, you'll want to have unlocked Forest world in Career. Once that's done, you should be able to go to Start - Ride - Freeride - Custom Track. Once in that menu, select Forest as the world, none for visual style, none for gameplay modifier, infinite for health.
Make Steepness maximum, curves nil, stunts nil. To help, you can build a crew. I used Heavy Bail Threshold, Fewer Obstacles, and Speed Wobbles.
Then select Build Track With These Settings. Hold RT and try and take the steepest way down. My first track didn't have a steep enough area to get the speed required (and none of my Highlands tracks were steep enough), but my second Forest track was plenty steep and I knocked out around 107km/h.

This was a great solution. I didn't have those crew members unlocked except Fewer Obstacles, so I used that only and got it on my first run. Thanks!

Hey Guys here's what i did,
I Just played the first Forest track and went in a straight line for around 6 seconds and the achievement popped, just avoid the trees, to make sure i have done it several times since, simple and effective.

The level Mega Ramp will appear occasionally on the campaign map, at the very start just hold RT and you'll gain enough speed to hit 102km/h
A great place to get it is on the Peak levels, just jump of any big cliff, even off track, and you will sped up to +100 km/h easily while falling.
This can be done on most maps with high steepness rating. It often helps to veer off the track and take the steepest downhill route. Fire node tracks should be suitable to complete this without issue.
I unlocked this by heading to Stoker Bike Park and taking a trail on the far right of where you spawn in. I continued taking the trail until the trail did a full
U-turn and went off the trail and onto the large hill and sent it. Unlocked on my first try.

I went to Free Ride, Bike Parks, MT SLOPE and went down a steep section as long as I could. I crashed but the achievement popped. Took under a minute.

Fastest way:
Go to Menu - Ride - Freeride - Custom Track
Next, select in the column:
World - Forest
Visual Style - None
Gameplay Modifier - None
Health - Infinite
Steepness - Maximum
Curves - Minimum
Stunts - Minimum
You can also assemble a team (Build Crew) and choose perks to make it a little easier, I recommend choosing the following perks: Heavy Bail Threshold, Landing Impact, In Air Correction, Less Curves, Fewer Obstacles and Speed Wobbles.
As soon as the level has loaded, we simply drive along the main path and pick up 100 km/h in the easy way. If it didn’t work the first time or crashed, we’ll restart.
