Went on a little ride of about 11 miles today to see a friend of mine. My right knee was killing me from yesterday’s 21-mile jaunt and I learned the hard way that most of the roads I took to get to my destination had pretty decent inclines on them…and any acceleration I picked up on the declines were short-lived thanks to inconveniently placed sharp turns or stop signs.
The ride there took me 20 minutes and the ride back took me 30, so my average speed was only 13.2 miles per hour, which is pretty pathetic for me normally, but I was riding rather leisurely so I guess that’s not too bad.
