    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.
    A 2 hr recovery ride for me last night, 20mph average. Was inspired by watching El Pistollero in the Paris - Nice epic.

    Def going up the hills better on the 13 - 26

    A recovery ride at 20 mph? NUTTER!

    I am having a recovery ride this am... it will be stuck in the small ring and stay there! 20 mph downhill perhaps lol

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    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...

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Today was much sunnier and warmer in East Lancs than the Yorkshire Dales! Got my Dales fix in this morning, around 65 miles up to Horton-In-Ribblesdale. 2 of us came back via Settle and pushed hard all the way back to Read where we went our separate ways. No stats, still on the winter iron with clean bars.

    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    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).
