Hmm. When I started my reply, there weren't any other comments...
When by myself, I'm sort of a "middling-poke". My old cro-moly hybrid is not light, by modern standards, especially when I have my grocery-getter pannier bags attached, so I couldn't be "fast" if I wanted to be!
Since my Mom has gotten to the condition where I can't be gone for extended periods of time, my longer rides have been curtailed, but when I could, I was always a slow-poke, since my long rides were always about enjoying the view.
