That's the plan Scott. My goal is to do a minimum ride of 40 miles. I think this is a reasonable goal.Originally posted by Scott
I did make it to the bike shop tonight just before closing and picked up my bike. Couldn't wait.

Got out on the new bike this morning for a 10 mile ride. Its no road couch like my other bike but I have to say it was pretty comfortable for my first ride. Shifting will take a little getting used too due to the shifter configuration but again not bad. Chain fell of once while shifting so I will be taking it back to the LBS to have it adjusted. All in all I am very pleased with it and look forward to putting many miles on it.If you look for the truth outside yourself, it gets farther and farther away. ~ Tung-Shan

Jay,
Good deal on the new bike. I think the OCR line is what my sister just bought after her bike was stolen in Philly. She's very happy with it and she rides 4-5000 miles a year.

Maybe someone can give me some advice here. Actually I would like to know where I stand. Since I got the new bike I have done 3 rides. Its an 8.2 mile loop near my house. We have a bike lane on one of the main roads next to my house and the road itself has lots of hills. Not such as easy ride for me but not that difficult either. On the last climb as I return home my legs are burning. Here are the times and speeds I traveled. I'm wondering what would be a good time and ave speed for a novas. I have nothing to gauge myself by and no one else to ride with. This coming week I plan to add at least 5 miles to my ride and do that a few times before adding a little more distance.
Ride# Date Mx Speed Ave Speed Distance Time
1 ---- 9/12 ---- 31.2 ---- 13 ---- 8.25 ---- 38.02
2 ---- 9/14 ---- 35.4 ---- 13.9 -- 8.18 ---- 35.19
3 ---- 9/16 ---- 29.1 ---- 13.2 -- 8.23 ---- 37.28If you look for the truth outside yourself, it gets farther and farther away. ~ Tung-Shan

Jay:
You're a corker. By next year you going to be kicking some serious butt on that bike. I really wouldn't worry about your speed 13-14 mph when you ride alone is fine. That's about what I do. A lot of you speed depends on the bike. The better the bike the higher the speed.Son Jason diagnosed 4/30/04, stage III. Right I/O 4/30/04. Graduated College 5/13/04. 4XEP 6/7/04 - 8/13/04.
