Bicycle Diaries
30 years riding, 15 years writing
Le Distance
Time for more miles in the saddle.
With my average speed going up, I needed more distance in my rides. The more miles I ride, the better my body can cope with going faster.
Distance and speed go hand in hand, so you have to increase one to affect the other.
Rode for 16.33 miles, average speed was 12.7 mph.
Charlotte, NC
Spent 10 years in Charlotte, a block away from an entrance to the McAlpine Creek Greenway.
Switched to a mountain bike from the road bikes I was accustomed to riding for 15 years.
The time spent on these trails was most appreciated.
