Crawling. That's an excellent way to describe what I do.

I think it should only be attempted after following a sensible training regime.

I think my slowest ride is 16 miles at an average of 7.4 miles an hour. A moving time of 2 hours 13 minutes and an elapsed time of 3 hours 28 minutes. Most of my rides aren't much more than 10 mph.

Nothing wrong with that!

I thought I was just about the slowest but hats off, cap doffed to that effort.

In comparison I average at a lightning fast 8 to 9 mph.

I don't wear any silly cycling clothes or shoes either, I like to have thing flapping in the wind. A bit more effort going against but I act as a human sail in a tail wind which sometimes means I reach the heady heights of a 10 or even 11 mph average.

Sometimes its just right to enjoy a slow ride and take in the views. Im just getting my partner into cycling and she says she's noticing things around town she's never seen before

I got a couple punctures this week on my rides, both from recently cut hawthorns on the country roads, so my 20 miles ride took over 6 hours, but this included the punctures, eating food, sitting on the bench, pheasant watching, pleasant watching and talking too much. All enjoyable stuff, apart from changing inner tubes twice.

I love a slow ride! < calling @Fnaar >

 

[GuyBoden]

The Autumn is a great time for cycling, the trees and the leaves look great...... and the stronger winds can make it an even slower ride.

 

[slowmotion]

You called.

Is trackstanding allowed? Here's a totally pointless snippet...the record was set by Rudi Jan Jozef De Greef (Belgium) whom stayed stationary without support for 10 hours at Meensel-Kiezegem, Belgium on 19 November 1982.
