today i did exactly the same 33mile ride as i did on sunday with my mate adam, road ride, not particularly hilly, not killing it and wearing 3/4 baggy raceface shorts meaning it was a spin ride. i haven't been road riding much over the winter so far, i find it a bit dull coz most of the time it's on my own, me and adam both want to get our fitness up so we're gonna try and make it a weekly thing atleast but i work less days than him so i'm gonna try and force myself to go out a bit more often on the road bike and maybe i might even threaten myself with the turbo trainer aswel. this will be on top of the mtb stuff i do.
so what i'm curious about is how do you think i did time wise, is this any good? not so much the comparison between the times, adam doesn't have the years of miles in his legs i have even though i don't do anywhere near what i used to do.
1st ride with adam was 2 hours 8 minutes spinning and chatting etc
todays ride, exactly the same route and same clothes and again predominantly spinning the inside ring(39t) 1 hour 52 minutes, average 17.2mph.
for the time of year and not killing it is that a reasonable time?
we are using a road ride around the isle of wight as our target for fitness, it's an organized road ride of 100km on the 3rd of may if anyone is up for it, various startpoints at each of the ferry ports onto the island.
