I am currently averaging around 60 for cadence on my rides (often with a fair few hills). I have read that this should be around 70-80 - is that correct?
I am really keen to build both speed and endurance, but get very frustrated that I am pretty slow on a bike. Probably I am not doing enough rides - only 4 so far this month...
1) 57 miles in Peaks (Brickworks climb, Long Hill, Cat) 5th April (1200m climbing)
2) 20 mile gentle flat trundle 7th April
3) 15 mile ride with Mow Cop climb 11th April (300m)
4) 40 miles towards Peaks 13th April (1200m)
I feel a bit lost with my training really. I kind of go out on a longer ride every now and then and try to do hills. I'm looking to extend the distances I can do (I did the 76 mile Cheshire Cat last month).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I am the kind of person that likes to know what they are doing is effective!
Cheers
