My average speed is hanging between 14 and 14.5 mph. It was 14.25 when I did 46 miles on Sunday. I'll be glad when it starts picking up a little. If I'm just biking along on a flat stretch, I'm anywhere between 15 to 17mph. The killer around here in my neighborhood area are the stop signs. I ended up doing the 46 miles in the neighborhood because I didn't want to go to Ft. Jackson by myself. At least I had my house to take a tinkle break & grab a fig newton.
