20/20

22.1 mile ride at an average speed of 20.1mph, a max speed of 27mph and HR avg 162. This was a PR setting, serious speed workout for me on the Paper Clip ride with the Space City Cycling Club. It is an ibuprofen evening as I hurt in places I did not know existed.

I got to the start point early as the "slower" people (read 21mph avg) leave at 5:45 and the faster ones leave at 6pm. I hung with the peloton for 10 miles and was dropped. I caught them at a light 3 miles later. I was dropped again at the 16 mile mark. A couple of riders passed me with 2 miles to go and I linked up with them to the finish.

I don't know JD, maybe my invitation to ride was not such a good idea. Then again if you were there, I'd of stayed away from the fast crowd.
