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.

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" 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!

I sometimes go 2.5 to 3 mph uphill...which is just on the verge of falling over. Originally Posted by laura jane

No, I was talking 9.53 overall average, including all rides- like for the year, not just for uphills.

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.
