My beautiful daughter and 11 month old grandaughter came down and spent most of Saturday and Sunday with me ,my wife, and my 17 month old daughter. We went to see my 9 yr old and 11 yr old grandsons play their basketball games. It was fun family time all weekend. So No bike hill repeats or long run as scheduled.
However today I did the hill repeats on my Miami Vice. I originally said they were 1/4 mile hills, but we measured in the car Saturday and they were 1/2 mile and my cateye cyclemeter confirmed 1/2 mile today.
I did 5 hill repeats (laps) instead of 10,as they were 1/2 not 1/4 mile. The fastest I reached was 37 mph , I wasn't trying and just happen to look down.
WOW! So much fun on the MV set up as a road bike (no aerobars). It's mostly stock except for the wheels are off R.T.s 87 yellow two tone master. Those Vittoria zaffiro tires make a huge difference when climbing. The MV was so stable and solid. And that front derailleur shifts like butter. Using this CIM on this workout would convince anyone to get one. Fantastic ride and bike.
Here's a pic. As loud as the 80s paint job is, it still under states how good this bike really is.
Sidenote: Unlike my 88 yellow fade, absolutely no walmart accessories.
