howdy, I've been semi pressed in as a fourth in a four man team to do a 24 hour ride around a circuit in Kent somewhere

I'm perfectly happy with the time but team captain is rather ken to smash the standing record for the over 40s of an average of 18mph

the more I think about it the better that standard sounds to me, it's all flat for 18mph average for that sort of distance is good work isn't it?

six hours at 18mph is umm ... nigh on 100 miles at 18mph, granted only one hour in four riding

or is that a piece of piss to be laughed at, I like a blast into work on the commute but not sure about keeping up a decnt speed for that long

all I have is 'the Top Gear test track!'

and 'It's flat'

I do a little over 20 quite happily on the way to work but I have a feeling that keeping that up for an hour or more is quite another matter

I stumbled across a PM that says I averaged 17.4mph on the Dunwich two years ago

That's cheered me up no end
