I'm new to road cycling and have about 800 miles on my bike and can't seem to break 17 mph avg. I have bettered my avg since starting , but seemed to have plataeud/peaked.
Real world, honest averages please!
with only 800 miles of riding you really are not going to see a dramatic improvement... somethings take work, 800 miles is couple of weeks worth of work... how much can you improve in that time?
