Elevated heart rates, noticably diminishing performance, and chronic fatigue are the most obvious signs you are pushing too much.
I like to do a test time trial of 20 miles once every two weeks just to keep tabs on improvments.
Yea , I mean just listen to your body and most of all have fun . My red flag is that I become less safty minded , ie , I am not focused and make mistakes . Thats when you head to the phone and make that call for ride . I admit , Ive been having some close calls as of late . When your over trained , you lose focus and you lose the ability to think sharply while dealing with car traffic ect ect.
peace
