Well. it's early Monday morning here, yesterday. I went out with one of the local clubs - been out with them 3 times in the past year, always come back a bit disappointed and vow 'never again'!
I try to ride everyday, leaving a first light and ride between 30 & 50 kms before the heat and traffic get too much! On Sundays, the traffic is lighter so I extend the ride a bit.
Yesterday's run started at 8:30, good turnout, one stop before lunch at 12o'clock - total riding time 1h 33 and 22.5kms. Now I am not the world's fastest rider and I felt exhausted! Now how can I cycle slower than normal to 'keep up' with them?
