Worked for me 2 hrs ago... Maybe I broke it

Seems fine now

I got my first puncture of the year today! Trike is still in car awaiting husband's ministering touch (he came to rescue me - I punctured about 1 mile from home at the end of a super-speedy 33 mile ride so couldn't be bothered to fix it and ride home).

I am feeling überchuffed at my average speed this month so far. 14.43 average!!!!!

Now with very nice cateye computer courtesy of my girlfriend who is actually already getting bored of me talking about cycling.

So have joined up with a target of 400 miles a month. Should be doable based on me doing my usual commute 3-4 a week for 4.5 weeks per month.

Are the times and speeds based on computers stopping at lights or does that just depend on individuals?

 

[ianrauk]

Welcome aboard mate. Your target looks very do-able.

My Garmin is set up to record time/distance/avg speed on whilst moving only.
ie time stops at 0mph

 

[karlos_the_jackal]

Excellent, so is my cateye. first 400 then 1,200!

 

[snorri]

Some of us record mileages accurately but don't worry about our speeds and just enter a time that gives a speed that looks "reasonable". (unsure as to which smiley applies)

I am brutally honest.

 

[karlos_the_jackal]

So will I be. Once i've measured my wheel circumference.

I have a penny farthing

 

[Auntie Helen]

I also record from the Garmin which stops when I am stationary.

I have always been surprised how slow my average speeds are. When zooming along on the trike I often see 20mph on the display and yet until this month I was averaging 11mph!

wooo did 25 miles with little pain from the knee
Getting back into it !

 

[aran20]

I just record Turbo miles!

 

[karlos_the_jackal]

What are these turbo miles?

(presume ones where you go fast and you cant be bothered to record the rest........statistics, then lies and then government statistics)

 

[Auntie Helen]

I just record Turbo miles!

Which presumably means you don't ever do any cycling on real roads, just in your spare room, where the wind doesn't blow, the sun doesn't beat down and the puncture fairy doesn't visit

Correct!
