Last night, I broke the $1000 mark. This is the minimum required for my participation in the ride so now I am truly committed.
A quick log of my ride home last night: I rode easy after having spent the evening with a friend eating a big meal and drinking a little sangria. It was dark when I started so I kept off the road and on the bike path.
Distance: 8.7 km
Time: 21:43
Average Speed: 24.2 km/h
Today, I went for my first long ride. I did not push it too hard and I kept my fuel up by eating an energy bar along the way. But, by the time I got to the last hill, I was struggling. The hill was short but pretty steep and I was only able to take it at 8 km/h. Once on top, I cooled down on flat roads for abot 6 km. Here is the log of my ride:
Route: from home onto the W 15th St bike route, left on Tatlow bike route, right onto Welch St. Welch to Park Royal onto Marine Dr all the way into Horseshoe Bay. Turn around following the same route back but hooking onto the W 1st St bike route to MacKay St and back into my neighbourhood where I did two laps.
Distance: 50.1 km
Time 1:50:00
Average Speed: 26.9 km/h
