What is it about a length of a ride, that is a problem.

 

[Nigelnaturist]

Good ride to the shop, 10.95 miles @ 17.3 mph, not so good back 2.69 miles @ 12.8mph, and I didn't need my overshoes.

Did you buy a couple of sacks of potatoes or something at the shop that slowed you down so much on the way back?

Should have bought some laxatives, they make you go faster

Not quite, but it is uphill for half the way, well the way I went, if I had just come straight home, it's uphill all the way so I would have been even slower.
Ride to the shop
Ride home from the shop
