Monday I did 24 miles in 2 hours. I didn't subtract time for the stop lights. They finally re-marked the forest preserve trail, so I stopped at the 10 mile marker. I estimate maybe 13-14mph.
Today even though my legs felt more tired I did 28 miles in the same chunk of time. I think I had better luck with the lights this time, and there must have been a bit less wind. I stopped at mile marker 12. (And downed a couple of shot blox) I suppose I averaged 14-15 mph?
I guess it would help if I actually installed that catseye bike computer I got a few weeks ago.
Anyway 52 miles this week and I still have another ride on Friday. Not too shabby.
Whew. Okay off to mow the lawn. Better get out of these unflattering bike shorts first!
