This is my first year cycling, I'm 8 weeks into my 12 week century training program and finally ordered a heart rate monitor, will hopefully have it for my long ride this weekend.

I understand the training zones etc, but am curious as to how some of you fare on a day when you might ride 65% heart rate and what your pace is, or maybe what your pace is on a 75 or 85% day, easpcially on long rides. Of course terrain, wind, each person will be different, I'm just curious as to what types of speeds you can maintain at different heart rates.

BTW, I'm not hung up on speed at all, just interested.
