Fitness Testing

I'm about 200 miles into this summer - the first 200 miles in 10 years. I would like to do some fitness testing as a benchmark to track my progress.

I have a fitness membership "ain't never been there - they tell me it's nice" I would like to get some testing done.

What are some of the key metrics/tests I should be getting done? Which popular tests won't apply to a cyclist. My riding goals are this - in order.


1. Not get dropped from local club rides
2. Keep me mentally - physically in shape
3. Try some local racing

PS I"m 39 years old
