So, I have been under fire here in the last few days.

Tonight leaving work, I had nothing to prove, but wanted to push myself a LITTLE.

Its a gradual uphill climb

I'd done 10 hours at work, on a Sunday

I stopped 5 times and was forced to slow once (Lights & a roundabout)

I gave about 80% effort

For those who "Critique" me in chat , feel free to do it here, as opposed to in the chat , at least I can defend myself here.

Try it without a warm, strong Westerly and I'll let you know :tongue: Thing is with my commutes I have good days, I have bad days. I can feel good in the morning and cr@p in afternoon or vice versa. All I know is that you're improving massively year on year which counts the most and I guess short term gains are a good motivator. Take a longer route home next time :smile:

In fairness, it felt more like a headwind dude :smile:

Yeah, look at me this time last year, that sort of average speed down hill was a dream

I normally go for longer rides both AM & PM but my body was freaking out, working on a Sunday isnt made for people like me

I don't see what your problem is. You popped into chat to see whether 'people' were there.

You enjoy your cycling. Is that not enough? You are a successful rider. Who cares?

I went on a training ride last night, I am interested in what the odd other person thinks but it does not need critiquing or some massive forum discussion on it. There are places like training you can already do that (and you do). If someone got all upset about it I'd probably chuckle and talk about something else.

My problem is people making derogatory comments about me and my family in the chat room , when I'm not there, nit giving me a chance to counter the remarks

Now , I have given everyone a place to do it, where I can defend myself

That's all
 
What do you mean push yourself a little if it was 80%? I would assuming pushing would be 101% and up :biggrin:


Could do with finding a good training run that avoids lights if you want some sort of consistent measure...
