Sunday 3 Hour Bike

The great thing about this mornings 3 hour ride is that it's over, as is this two week build, and I have tomorrow off!

Actually, the time went by fairly quickly. I really have to get some more music. I have way too much Beatles at the BBC! I think I need to build up my Stones, Aerosmith and Queen library!

The little Comutrainer rider took off from me at the beginning and got about 500 meters ahead, but I ended up 6.5k ahead of him!

I averaged 24.4 kph on the first 73k of the Lake Placid route. I was pushing 24.8, but I was starting up the two Cherrys and the three Bears hills back into town. It's hard to keep speed high on those hills. I've ordered the Real Course Video of that ride which should add another level of fun to riding that over the next while.

I managed to keep my cadence up to an average of 82 over the three hours. I still need to pick that up a bit, but it's moving tin the right direction. My average wattage was 141, pushing to top of zone 2 for me.

I stretched for 10 minutes, grabbed a shower and a bottle of e-mend and so ends the second, two week build of the year!
