Not today, but saturday I decided to test myself with a self planned 10 mile TT (just a route chosen on google maps and go as fast as possible) on my fixed wheel bike.

Time: 36.07
Average Speed: 16.7mph

Got to admit, fairly dissapointed in my time, expected to be a bit faster (didnt expect to be breaking any records, but under 32 mins would have been much more pleasing), I was in puking territory by mile 6 (should not have had 500ml of lucozade before mounting up, held it down though......... barely) and slowed a bit because I was gassed by the last 2 mile.


Anyone know what a decent 10 mile TT time is for a newby, i.e someone who has been cycling since Jan/Feb? Im looking to fix up my fixed bike as a TT machine and train for 10 mile TT's, for fun, dont expect to be competative, but I dont have much free time so 10 mile is a good short sharp shock. Its intense but over with pretty fast.

25 miles today in a foul wind with a fifteen minute blizzard thrown in just to make sure my knees got really cold.

Some interval training, my bpm feels like it's through the roof.

 

[Rob3rt]

50 mile round greater manchester, 1st time I've done 50 miles, almost doubled my previous longest distance of 26 mile. Average speed 15.8mph (would probly have been faster had I not been knocked off 20 miles in) which Im pretty happy with.

Not sure if im aching because of the distance or because a car hit me, lol

 

[GrumpyGregry]

27km of country lanes on a 71" singlespeed.

Did 15 miles on saturday in lovely cold,wet and windy weather.Took me about 1 hour and 5 mins but half of it is on a track rather than road and so i have to use my mountain bike.I got my fastest average speed yet and more importantly i am finally faster than my dad!
