Did my first longish distance rid today... some of the guys i went with do like 50 mile bike rides for fun and some of the hills we did were rediculous to say the least!
Anyway... the bike
The route.

My quickest mile was 2min 12secs and slowest was about 10 mins on the mega kill hill as i call it.
Pretty knackered and definately need to work on my fitness and hill power!
anyone else use Endomondo to track distance etc.

supposed to be encouraging strava lets you compare yourself against other people over certain stretches as well, came joint 5th in a sprint between two signs... think i've dropped a bit now. One hill climb I've ranked at taking about half hour (I ended up walking up lol) the first time is like 3 mins *blushes*
I miss riding track tbh. What pedals are you using on that bike, look like spd's?

I love that app. So cool. Have had a couple KOM too now. I had a lazy week last week. Back on it this week. Need to cycle all the bank holiday beer away.
