Last year I worked really hard all year to get to an average 15 MPH for an hour, and never got there, I would hit 14.8, 14.9, but never 15. I just got back from a 32 mile ride (2 hours) with and average speed of 15.3

A-mazing! I need to call the cardiac care unit just THINKING about it

Oh yeah! I'll bet I can do that coming down Pikes Peak

Great Job Terry! Awesome ride.. 146bpm AVERAGE, thats a great nsv by itself!

yea, it felt really good and I still had legs left when I got back. This time I remembered to bring some Gu and a Protein bar so that I didn't bonk.

Not to change the subject...but....lol

I notice the gatorskins in your new profile pic (good pic BTW)

Have you used them for a long time? Like them?

Reason I ask is I just had a pair put on mine...switching from bontrager's hard case. AND, I layed it down in a parking lot, with fresh sealant, thursday in the rain....my pride was destroyed!! lol Anyways, are they really that much slicker? Or do I just need to learn those too.....I'm not a good learner

I hadn't noticed them being slicker, I know they were harder than hell to get on. But I tend to not ride in the rain, so your YMMV. I just hate changing flats.
