First Day Training
Jun 4, 2009
It’s taken me a while to get my first post on the site as I had some issues uploading images, but I thought I’d share how my first official day of training for the TT bike ride went.
I’ve been cycling into work every day for the past 4 weeks, but today was the first time I’ve been out on my bike when I haven’t been commuting to/from the office. I started over the weekend by servicing my bike and getting rid of a few niggles that have been annoying me over the past few weeks, and I also bought a cycle computer which will help me to monitor my progress (mainly by tracking distance and time taken etc).
So I set out and headed towards one of the large local parks before heading north into some of the villages.
All in all I covered 18.9 miles in 1:40, giving me an average speed of 11.3 mph, and a maximum speed of 24 mph which wasn’t bad for my first go at a meaningful distance.
