We have all had the 'toppling over while clipped in in an embarassing and ego bruising manner' Stagger :)
Had an amazing ride this am, on the clubrun with a local cycling club... did 100 kms in just over 3 hours... as they dragged me along with their A group. Apparently, I am the first person and most definitely the very first woman to have survived this unscathed, as they really rip your legs off if you go with them for the first time AND with the fast group LOL!
Serious cyclists, but also very social and lots of fun :)
Well done Hann that will give you lots of confidence.Quote:

Def going up the hills better on the 13 - 26
A recovery ride at 20 mph? :eek: NUTTER!Quote:

Recovery ride yesterday was a revelation... It was actually quite hard to ride so slowly that the HR was below 130... so pottered around at 24.4 km/hr average for about an hour.
This morning I rode nice and steady, took in a couple of decent climbs.. about 45 kms in 1.45 hrs :) Bit cold and misereably wet, but feeling good. Base building going quite well :)

Tend to ride between 85 and 90 on the road, but at about 95-100 on the track...Quote:

No stats, still on the winter iron with clean bars.
Did a ride with Christopher Leigh yesterday or was it Graeme Obree, he chose not to put his 67 tooth chain ring that he had had specially made on for the ride. I will will reserve my right to cast judgement at this present time, I have directed him back to the forum an we're out again next week (he is a much nicer character in person). :p
I have a rest dau today and it is all lovely and warm and sunny :(
