Bikes: trek fx 7.3

today i ride about 25 miles. my average speed was 12mph. my maximum speed ever is 29mph.

when climbing the hill a boy (looks like a racer) said 'hello' and passed me. it was quite windy. i tried to catch him but couldn't

i still have bike related problems. i put a shorter stem and moved the saddle to front. but this time i have difficulty in climbing hills. and after changing the stem a noise comes from the bike. so i'll again put on the original stem. i suppose my problems with the bike is related to fitting. the bike is big for me. so i decided to sell it in the future

yesterday i met to a young bike mechanic. he said that he'll make 95 miles in a day. i asked 'how long does it take to ride this distance?' and he said '5 hours'. that was incredible his bike is a full carbon mtb.

and i think the racers bike who passed me when climbing was also a mtb or a hybrid with wide tires.
