Is 20 miles in under an hour a realistic goal for a MAMIL?

A good demonstration of Strava's propensity to overdo the elevation - 663 ft :biggrin:

But well done.

I'm surprised the elevation isn't more. There's easily 10ft of elevation in a lap of Hillingdon.

edit: I have replied to an ancient post.

This reminds me of years ago when I went on a bike mechanic course taught by an ex bike racer. We went out for lunch and I told him my impressive stats that I could cycle 10 miles in only 40 minutes (!). The racer guy didn't say anything so I thought he didn't hear me. I repeated it and again no response. On the way back from lunch I told him again but he just wasn't responding.

Only later on I found how crap my stats were and that I should have kept my big mouth shut. :biggrin:

On the plus side though it was 40 minutes in traffic during rush hour.

PS: why do they call it "rush HOUR" when the rush lasts several hours morning and several hours in the evening, and things aren't much better in between?
