Man it has been a while since I have posted my ride stats, a lot has happened in that time. For one Tour Gal (My Wife) actually decided to pick up a road bike and we have been out about three or four times. Amanda has been working out at home for about three or four years now. She is very fit and does step aerobics, dilates, yoga and probably a few other programs I am forgetting to mention.
The first day on the bike she was a bit nervous about “clipping in” however we did some practicing in our culdusac and she got the hang of it no problem. On our first ride she was awesome, we rode for 20 miles, dam good for someone’s first day on the bike. Just yesterday we rode for 30 miles and were already thinking about taking a three or four day cycling vacation in Minnesota or Wisconsin.
Amanda got an excellent cycling computer (flight deck) that is controlled by small buttons that are located on the hand-rest areas. She picked up the whole package, a trek 1500, top of the line cycling shorts, a pair of nike cycling shoes and socks.
All in all over the last week or so I have riden (mostly with Amanda) about 110 miles. I rode once by myself and rode faster than I have alone about 15.4 mph for about 25 miles. Anyway, just wanted to post my own riding info over the last week.
– 4 rides over about a 9 day period totaling 110 miles
