I am training intensely to increase my cruising speed on the flats as you say. I want to go on a 3000 mile tour with some hot shots. Unfortunately my average on the flats is 20 to 22 MPH. Tell me your secret to get up to 28 to 30 MPH. I think I would pay for advise with measurable success.
I am an old guy at 63, however.
