Sixty is making me feel much better about myself .
I was getting upset about not being able to top a 20 mph avg.
Last year my commute was an even 10 miles, and my best time was 30 min.
I was late and rushing and couldn't believe my 20 mph avg.
This year I'm 12.3 miles away, and while I've done plenty of longer rides, that extra 2.3 miles took some getting used to. My average speed this year was between 16.5 and 17.5 mph. But I recently swapped my trek soho s for an 84 bridgestone ss with a lower GI. I thought my commute would be much slower due to the added weight and lower gearing, but lo and behold I'm getting consistent 16.5 mph avg's, and my butt and back aren't sore anymore. YAY ME!
