Today's Intense Ride (05-21-07) - Thought I'd Share...
Today's ride was killer so I just thought I'd post it. Not necessarily the avg speed (wind was rough), but check out the intensity.
05-21-07
Distance: 23.02 miles (Basically Flat Terrain)
Time: 1:08:21
Winds E 9-13mph
Avg Speed: 20.2mph
Avg Pace: 2:58/mile
Avg HR: 92% (183bpm)
Avg Cadence: 72rpm
There was a few dips in the graph from rolling intersections or stop signs. My goal was to avg over 20mph, which was tough because of the freekin' wind, it was aggravating as crap. The first half I averaged 19.6mph basically from head/cross winds so I knew I had to increase the intensity and hope for a little tailwind on the way back. I almost gave up several times but stuck with it. Anyway, just thought I'd share. Just for reference, I'm 5'10", ~173lbs, 34yrs old, riding recreationaly since Aug. '04.
