Now Chris Froome needn't worry and to some of you more serious cyclists this will be insignificant (big word for me that
).
As previously explained........at 68 I am getting back into cycling and never done any what I call "serious cycling".
I am trying to do longer & longer rides at the week-end and then...........if my poor sit bones allow...a 10 miler mid-week.
So........ Last Friday I enjoyed a beautiful 42 miler on the Wirral.
Today I did my normal mid-week 10 mile loop...........and this is were my personal best comes in
Now..........no trumpets please..........and no cheering (well maybe a bit)
BUT..................
10 miles in 40 minutes 40 seconds
Average speed 14.5 mph (for me that is good)
Top speed attained 25.6 mph (just a short burst near the end).
I admit the weather was good and the traffic was kind but generally I was well 'appy.
