I would say whatever the speed limit is or by personal sound of engine that makes you comfortable! I think my tires on the road are pretty loud but, think also 4500-6000 RPM would be fine.

Any body else care to compare Rpms to MPH? sure would help to have a good Baseline, so as to tell when belt, etc. needs looking at. ps. Newguy here.
