There will be ups and downs, but if you track regularly and work at it, you will enjoy a downward trend!
+1 about tracking your rides. I use Endomondo but it really doesn't matter what app. I'm not into trying to best my speeds but it's really satisfying to see accumulated distance and improvements in time. I also enjoy checking in on the "How was your ride today" thread
