I rode about 17 miles tonight . Central Mass is very hilly but averaged almost 13 MPH . Not real fast but it will get me there. It's getting better each time I go. Some of the hills are bad and long enough that I was only going 5 to 8 MPH but I guess the trick is to find the right gear and keep pedaling. The hardest part is finding the time to get out and ride. I haven't even been on my motorcycle yet . I'll do a couple 20's this week and see if I can crank out a 30 next weekend (maybe). Still have several weeks left to work myself.
