So, let's be honest, what is your usual average speed on a typical solo ride of at least 20 miles? Don't cheat by giving your fastest ride or by adjusting your average upwards to account for traffic or stop signs....these are all part of th e ride. Honestly, what would you usually average on a typical day from doorstep to doorstep?
With the wind blowing off Lake Eire you ought to be averaging 40 mph at least for half your ride.
