avg speed? on most centuries about 15mph... that's with only about 5000ft climbing tho... more climbing means lower avgs... in flats on good legs I can maintain 19mph for a while... I rode my fastest century at 6 hours 21 minutes drafting my bro between 18-19mph...
I'm with Susan on this one... rides named things like "Breathless Agony" just don't sound particularly appealing! LOL... Veronica YOU ROCK! Look for my bro at Solvang...he'll be riding that double...maybe on his newly signed bike! :D He's going for the 1000 mile club this year :eek:
I'm actually switching to a compact crank soon... as I have progressed to riding more and more difficult climbs I have realized I need to make a switch... I'm on a 39X27 and never get off or stop which is good... but I don't want to blow my knees out... so compact it is!

I train alone on the flats. My average is around 26km/hr (just a bit over 16 m/hr)

we have a bike trail called bloody nose. Yea I want to ride that one and it's not cause it is high either! The higest elevation is 800 feet.:confused:
