It was so much higher that I really did not know how much effort I was exerting - so I just rode by feel . ..

Are your sure it wasn't heat, over-excitement, exertion, humidity, lack of water, lack of sleep, plain tiredness, over-training or even talking to yourself (as well as possibly many other things)?
