Another ride to Cambridge, part of my weekly century ride plan. Unfortunately, caught every possible red light in London & Cambridge and thus missed out on 25kmph average speed. This despite a desperate effort where I averaged almost 32kmph for 20kms. Final average moving speed – 24.9 kmph.
Gotta try harder next time.
2nd metric century within a week. Rode to Cambridge today, about 102.5 kms, and took the train back. Wonderful ride. No hills (unlike the Chilterns enroute to Oxford) and luckily, didn’t get any rain on me, though the roads were pretty wet in places.
Also, trying the Cannondale Synapse tomorrow. If I like how it rides, might buy it as soon as we’ve moved to the new place.
