Speed ???

Well, did a short ride, pushing for speed.  Tried to get a partner to race against but I think I posted to late.  Anyway my opponent ended up being the clock, tick, tock, tick, tock... Hummm apparently I need to change the batteries in this particular "clock" as I ended a bit slower than I wanted.  Stats below

Companion: Solo
Distance: 13.8 miles
Time: 58 minutes
Average speed 14.3 MPH  compared to last speed run of 14.94

Well,  It was a beautiful day. Didn't think I would get out, busy with that thing called "life" but did for an hour, so was thrilled.    Although I didn't push myself the way I should have, losing speed on my last recorded "speed" ride.

What I learned:
Well, training can sometimes be a bit tough when doing it alone.   Meaning, I always "do" it but...  sometimes when I don't have the "boys" pushing me, or me keeping up with them!, it becomes a bit easier not to push my hardest. Well anyway... I did a lot of thinking on my ride, perhaps the need for "thinking" time was the reason this adventure was meant to be alone.  Had a good talk with myself ... HAHAHA... Oh come on... I know you all do it sometimes ;)... And realized something very important about myself, so overall.. it was a successful ride... :)   Gosh.... I can't help but laugh at my ride photos... because nothing makes me look remotely cool.... LOL!  And yes... the hair kept getting in the way... but no time to stop... as I was on the clock!!!  Until next ride...
