After friday’s tougher journey I cruised south to San Martin yesterday and did a neater journey for 1 hour 43 minutes. These restoration rides at all times make me really feel higher after, I name it “spinning the junk out of my legs”.
After my current dialogue of the 12 months (and month and week) data in biking, I found the World Ultracycling Affiliation web site. They preserve observe of the 12 months document now amongst others, together with distances lined in 6 hours and 12 hours. If you wish to submit journey data to them you possibly can simply give strava knowledge or different gps knowledge. However there’s a catch. You’ll be able to’t submit a journey of lower than 90 miles! Something much less is taken into account too informal, I assume, which provides an thought of what the “extremely” in ultracycling means. I used to be capable of lookup some earlier data to get an thought of how briskly individuals round my age is perhaps. I couldn’t discover a document for the 70+ class, however within the 60-69 age group the document for a month is over 4000 miles! I discussed that I believed if I gave it a very good strive I may do about 1500 miles in a month, which I believed was rather a lot. This places it in perspective…
