Back at ya! :)
Fifty minutes on the trainer. Total climb = 0 ft.
Assuming I have it all calibrated correctly (which is a very big if), my Garmin says I rode for 11.6 virtual miles at a virtual average speed of 14.1 vmph.
And it was soooo boring. :p
THAT is a hard ride. i've never done more than 6 virtual miles.
Oh go ahead, laugh away!!Quote:

Not to seem competitive or anything but my average speed was 12.4 :p ... for 38 kinda hilly miles ... it's was a nice day for a ride here in the Bay Area
I guess I'll chime in here too...my average today was 12.4 on a 37 mile ride.
Gorgeous clear blue skies here today! We are having really cool weather, which is very unusual but perfect for riding. It was a bit breezy, but I didn't mind. Everything is still really green and springy looking around here, so I really enjoyed the scenery.
Well MY average climbing some hills today was 6mph ;) Look out, coming through!
15 miles on a blazing road. And I went at lightning fast 13.9 mph average. It is 100 degrees today, wahhhh. :rolleyes:
I took the scenic route to church 20 miles, 1500 feet of climbing:eek: We've still got "June Gloom", so no pics
Tried out part of a new route segment added onto one I've ridden before. The addition was hillier and furthest point out from start. Wondered how that would go lol. Ended up going pretty well.
34miles total. The whole loop is 40mi. Wanted to do that. But, was "good":rolleyes: and decided to stick with the TE advice of adding my miles on more gradual. Good advice (as always)...
My quads are sore from climbing. A bit tired. But not totally spent. Good compromise.
Good ride on a beautiful sunny day!:cool:
Hill workout with DH. Speed is coming up with less downshifting and a few sprints. I got cocky and let him add on a few miles--hint, when you hit 30 mph going downhill it won't be fun on the way back up. At one point, speed was 0 mph (stopped on the side of the road--threatened to throw up Mountain Dew on him--he laughed--and backed up).
I sometimes go 2.5 to 3 mph uphill...which is just on the verge of falling over. :DQuote:

Distance 0 miles, average speed 0 mph. :eek:
Gave myself a rest day after feeling stiff and off this morning. :)
Me too.
Bagged the 50 mile charity ride (we were going to sign up at the start) and stayed in bed on a nice rainy morning. I'm a little under the weather. I also bagged a 5k run my friend was in charge of at the local hospital.
I can't remember the last time I did nothing all day, not even a walk.
81 kms. --objective was to get out to a new road bridge opening celebration. There is a cycling to all this. Will post elsewhere.
I continue to be impressed by dearie who managed to hook up 4-5 different bike routes (again a blend of road with bike lane most of the time or off-road).
It was a pretty good ride, considering that there was a headwind 60% of time but I hung in there. Must be all that early morning rides daily that's helping me abit. :)
