That is some motivation for ya! You should be faster than a centenarian.

I race but I feel like most members of the general public/ and half this forum could not hold a pace of 14 mph for 4 hours without stopping.

Impressive to me. I've never been able to break 13 MPH average on my KHS on anything over 10 miles. My first ride on my Felt yesterday I averaged 13.1 MPH. 14.6 average for 4+ hours is pretty dang awesome!

Yeah, the pace may not be impressive but how many of us will be around or even riding at 100 years of age?
Good stuff!
