For those distances, out in the countryside, clipless would be appropriate. If all in traffic less so. Do you get any foot ache? What do you wear on your feet currently?What is considered long distance? Most my rides are 50-60km

Well presumably she does get out of Central London on those rides (if not, perhaps she should get out with the bike on a train)?50-60k always in traffic, horrific!
I am not a bike courier only a bicycle enthusiast, I try to stick to cycling paths and just see where they go otherwise I just cycle round aimlessly around the city to see where the road takes me and if I want to go home I will look at the road signs or put the navigation on.60km in town is a huge amount. Are you a bike courier ?
I try to stick to official cycling paths and just see where they go otherwise I just cycle round aimlessly around the city to see where the road takes me and if I want to go home I will look at the road signs or put the navigation on. Sometimes I have a place in mind so I cycle there and then cycle round that place.She probably needs to better explain how she organises her 50-60km rides![]()
If you get out of central London there are often loud motor ways in the surroundings so it is annoying it would be nice to cycle for once on a really well paved road that's surrounded by natureWell presumably she does get out of Central London on those rides (if not, perhaps she should get out with the bike on a train)?
That said, Central London isn't busy early on a Sunday morning for example
Get a train to somewhere like Dorking (or one of a hundred other places in the Home Counties) and enjoy the countrysideIf you get out of central London there are often loud motor ways in the surroundings so it is annoying it would be nice to cycle for once on a really well paved road that's surrounded by naturePerhaps if I become a more experienced cyclist I might undertake the great tour of Europe or the UK so I can cycle somewhere nice.
Most of my cycling is in traffic unfortunately I don't get any foot ache. Part of me thinks that I am perhaps not peddling correctly as I think I am not putting the correct part of my foot onto the pedal. The first 20km are always hard afterwards I am ok. I wear running trainers for cycling
