lolololololol. She usually won't shut up.
So I ask..how many of you are giving close to 100% when riding with your wife? or is it more of a leisurely ride? At that point it's like going for a walk in the park or some sh1t like that.
thats kind of where i was going with the whole thing...
My gf is quite athletic, and a very, very good swimmer (mid and long-distance). In terms of strength and power, she'd crush almost all of the women I've ever known. I've never evaluated her aerobic capacity, but I'd expect it to be pretty high for a woman.
The thing is: even she is a horrible cyclist compared to me. I'm only a decent rider, but I still ride away from her without realizing it. So, I let her pace and pretend that I'm on a recovery ride or something. Probably about how a pro would feel riding with me.
