Since there was a lot of activity in the "Bicycling Off-Road" thread, thought I'd put up an on-the-road version....Road-bikers...what was your last ride? Mine was a solo ride from Closter, NJ to Bear Mountain and back...56.58miles, 3h16m ride time, 17.2mph avg, 1890ft total ascent...
Nice! At least you are riding. Due to snow and salt on the ground, I use my MTB onroad. 25-30miles every other day.
Hey Jack,See you found one. Looks like a nice find.I'll see if I kept any of my TDF, PR, etc, dvd's that I can send your way. For some reason I think they went to Goodwill though.I usually ended up watching tv to pass my time.Enjoy.Regards,Jeff
Congrats Phil. 64 and 82 miles is doable.It looks like the category for my age bracket were closed already. If you need a training buddy, let me know.
It's 64 miles, with 4000+ft of climbing and 30% of the course is dirt...
Hey Phil, you can do it no without a doubt. My recent bike ride to Bear Mountain has a total of 6,900+ feet of elevation gain. That is starting from Queens. It is much easier on a bike that weighs 15-16lbs. Make sure you have the proper rear cassette gearing.
