Saturday, a beautiful day for a bike ride. I averaged about 25KPH for 120K. I even met up with Evana from the Gym and we rode together to the lunch stop. She was doing "The Century" so that was where I was on my own. The new bike was like riding on a cloud. It still take energy to move the pedals around but it is a very 'sweet' ride!
Here are the stats for Saturday and some pictures from Saturday:
04:51 .... hh:mm Time rolling along the way
119.90 .... Kilometers traveled
24.70 .... Kilometers Per Hour Average
36.90 .... Kilometers Per Hour Max (some pace-line :)

Sunday was a beautiful day, just a bit warmer but not too much so. Evelyn was not volunteering today so I drove myself over to the ride and was ready go by 7:30am, the ride started at 8:00am. This day, as is usual for Sundays, there were plenty of pace-lines and I did hook up with one that was traveling around 33kph (20mph). The result was that I got to the lunch stop at 10:30am and then after lunch found myself all alone on the course. This was not too bad except for the intermittent head winds. Another bit was that I decided not to swap out my new bike seat and I did pay for that decision during the last third of today's ride. Here are the stats for today and then some pictures.
04:46 .... hh:mm Time rolling along the way
118.42 .... Kilometers traveled
24.80 .... Kilometers Per Hour Average
46.70 .... Kilometers Per Hour Max (down the off ramp :)
