Cycle - Home to RTC and back
Finally!!! I took out my newly tuned up road bike today. It has new cables, housing and breaks to name a few of the things that were replace. It also was cleaned up of all the dirt and grime of spring that had accumulated.
It was a great ride. The temperature started in the mid 70’s and ended in the mid 80’s. I pushed the pace during parts of the ride - especially the 5 miles of mostly hills back to my house at the end. I kept my HR in the 170’s for long periods of time, and was able to tolerate it without very much discomfort.
I ended up riding the hills in my middle chain ring - a sign that I have fairly good fitness. In addition I averaged 15 mph on the ride - again a fairly good sign of fitness for me on this ride.
It was a great ride.
