New Personal Best!

Hey guys.

After almost wussing out today and not riding my bike in (in favor of a motorized bike), I decided to ride the bike in anyway. My wife and I went on a 8.5 mile "strenuous" hike yesterday, and my legs were a little tired. Well, I am glad I rode in, because I made a new time record! Average speed over the 9.5 miles was 17.7 mph (up from 16.8 previously), and total ride time was a 1.5 minutes faster than the previous best! No peceivable tailwind either. I guess that hiking just works the legs in a different way. Anyone ever seen anything similar?

I need to start hiking every Sunday.
