grawk Posted July 15, 2020 Report Share Posted July 15, 2020 I hurt my foot running and didn’t want to lose the gains i’ve made so I went out on the bike today. i rode my old mountain bike because I figured the extra weight would help. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grawk Posted July 15, 2020 Report Share Posted July 15, 2020 oh for sure, those early 90s mountain bikes were basically 26" road bikes with knobby tires. I threw a goofy touring handlebar setup, because the frame is way too big for me to use with drop bars, and I wanted to ride it longer distances and be able to change up hand positions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Decided to ride to our vacation spot today. Didn't look at time/distance/speed once during the ride. Just rode at a pace that I thought would allow me to finish. An unexpected detour added about five and a half miles and an additional big hill or two but I survived, so no complaints. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzziguy Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 Nice ride, Nate! Gee, I wonder where that detour was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 And I feel like 14 miles at 11 mph is an accomplishment Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted July 20, 2020 Report Share Posted July 20, 2020 ^^ It's all relative, Dan. I've got a friend in town that routinely goes out and rips off 40+ mile rides at averages well over 20mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 You know that's not a bike, right? And that you're not supposed to have a beer while driving a car? 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Incremental gains. 69% humidity doesn't seem like a lot, but ugh. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Sawyers Posted July 29, 2020 Report Share Posted July 29, 2020 That, Nate, is some fancy pedalling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 With a little luck I'll do the commute again on Friday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augsburger Posted July 30, 2020 Report Share Posted July 30, 2020 You had very little elevation so I am wondering if you hit 33 and 34 mph on the flats? That is some impressive hammering! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grawk Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 Riding without using the small ring, so I'll be ready when the mid-compact gets here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grawk Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 I just went to a 120/6 stem. Got me a little more reach, and a little lower. My Ultegra group is working it's way through the covid affected international air shipping. Did 25 miles/1000 Ft of climbing today. Averaged 14.9mph. Still avoiding the small ring. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 If you want to go even more stretched out, Dan, I've got a spare 130mm stem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
