Two bike rides today. I got up early and rode the 22.35 mile route that I did on Wednesday and then went and joined the "San Marcos Friends" for a 19 mile ride. This was the first time I had rode with this group. There were about 20 riders of varying ability. No real pro's but 3-4 very strong riders. I had ridden the route before but by myself. Throughout the ride there were four points where the group sprinted for about 3 miles. Mostly I stayed with the lead pack on all of the sprints but there were a couple of guys who were able to get a fair lead on a couple of the sprints. It's amazing how much faster you can go in a pack. We were averaging 28-30 mph on the sprints. My morning ride was a little slower than the day before. My legs were tired all day, I think with a few more days of riding like this I'll start feeling like I'm in better shape.

Rode with San Marcos Cycling Friends
Slow ride, Stops and Sprints - That's why the HR is so low |

â[God Disciplines His Sons] Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.â Hebrews 12:1 |
