After a long ride

[lavoisier]

I ride 3x a week, Mon, Wed and Fri. Only been doing it about 5 weeks.

I did my longest ride to date on Wed, just over 21 miles.

For tomorrow is it best to keep the distance up or to go with an easier ride and perhaps just do a long ride once a week?

I was riding up a small hill to a bridge and going great guns when I heard this 'Howdo' and this bloke scorched passed me. All I could reply was 'bloody hell' and laughed. It actually encouraged me to know I still have enormous room for progress.

Thanks


Paul

Listen to your legs

If they are recovered and pedalling smooth go for it.

From your post it won't be long before 21 miles isn't worth getting changed for - long gets re-defined quite regularly!

Yes Paul he was, but then again so was I!
