I was back on the bike today to do a 40k TT. By my cyclocomputer, I did 01:12:56 at 20.2 mph. Heartrate was quite benign: 129 avg. That's about five or six beats under race pace. Max was something like 145.
Now, I just checked my results from the 20k TT, and the official results show that I had a 20.4 mph average. My heartrate was through the roof on that on. My time was 00:36:31. Double that is 1:13:01. I didn't hurt as badly today. Maybe I didn't hurt so badly back in May. I don't do well with hurt.
I've got to find some more races. I've been flat. I'm not happy toodling in mid-paced rides anymore. I like riding with my gf. It's also true that I have not had a season of my own making. I've chosen to involve myself in other things. I need to do what I like again.
