that's pretty believable for you yenners

So yenners can do it, and by your reckoning he's of a standard to ride the Tour de France...but everyone else is a liar.

;)

yenners hasn't claimed an average speed of 25mph, he's claimed 18-19mph, I know yenners is a pretty fast cyclist, and the figures from his computer appear to tally with one another.

So. Bonj.

Come and beat my under-10s.

why don't THEY come and beat ME if they're that desparate to prove themselves, or should I say if YOU'RE that desparate for them to prove themselves, as it happens I'm not.

40 odd km (25mls) in 1hr.30min' is pretty good; allowing for traffic/lights etc...

I beleive most average speeds are 'round 20mph etc...

But is this your average or your average of averages?

My slowest average is 9 mph with my family (very hard not to fall off!) (3.5 miles)

My Fastest average is 30.81 mph (on a turbo (so not real world!)) (10 miles)

Real world average fastest 19.5mph (16 miles)

Real problem is I’m not that fit, but I believe others are!

how can your average on a turbo be 30 odd miles per hour? unless it was on a lorry - ona turbo in your garage, you're going 0mph.

So if you walk down the isle of a plane, does that mean you're walking at 504 mph?

er... no, because the frame of reference is the plane. When you're on a turbo in your garage, the frame of reference is the garage. I would have thought that was obvious...
Same as if you cycle down the aisle of a plane , not that it's allowed, but if you did - then you'd be going at some postiive speed - but if you were ona turbo in a plane, then you're going at 0mph (not that that's allowed either I wouldn't have thought.)
