OK I said earlier in this thread I would fit my computer and test my speed over two weeks, well bugger it I only fitted it on sunday night and its not fair on my body to try and set records every day.
So I rode to work on monday on my normal 9.2km commute its very flat I warmed up on the first 1km. Normaly I take longer to warm up.
I had to stop at 3 sets of traffic lights and there's one slight hill at a railway over pass with a equal down slope on the other side.
And there was a slight head wind, my average was 29.2kph.
On the way home in the reverse direction I still had a slight head wind and I would say for the first 5km was averaging over 35kph but then I gave up and finished with a average of 28.9kph I was a bit surprised seeing as I just did 8hours hard work.
So on the next day I surprised myself again I thought I was a bit more gentle and the ride seemed easyer still with a slight head wind "its never a dead wind to open"
I averaged 30.7kph. In hindsight maybe I had more in me and could do better as I was not breathing so had I could'ent talk but I was sweating also its not that hard to hold 38+kph for long distances as I was but its the average where talking about.
So I think I've put my fitness out there for every one to judge and I'm sure people will and I dont claim to be the fittest rider around.
AdelaaR maybe you just are really fit and fitter than me but it would be nice to go for a blast with you sometime and test each other, maybe next time I'm out your way. "I've never left Australia how sad"
It would be nice if other people could give a honest idea of how fast they ride.
