I am pretty sure I will be getting faster as time goes on. The few times Ive ridden in Ive done the ride anywhere from 1:35 to 1:50. 11 of the miles are on well travelled roads so I have to deal with traffic and stop lights so that slows me down. The more used to this route I get the faster I will get. I dont have a computer right now so I dont know how fast I am actually riding. The route isnt too hilly so I dont have any excuse for riding slow.

I havent done 250 miles of commuting in a week. I just started this a few weeks ago and was planning on getting there but wasnt going to rush into it and burn myself out. Now my shift has me work 3 days one week and 4 the next so I wont have an oppurtunity to go for 250 until i move back to 5 days in a few months. Im hoping I can get in at least a few weeks of full time commuting and that should get me into shape enough to consider learning to race.
