I managaged to cycle all the way to the Scwartz Bay ferry terminal this afternoon. Unfortunatly I left my camera at home, so I have nothing to backup this feat. 60km round trip; probably my longest continuous trip ever.
According to my computer, I took 2 hours, 31 mins, and 43 seconds. That's the amount of time my wheels were actually turning. It was probably a little longer than that, on account of traffic lights and water breaks.
Max speed, 49.9 km/hr, avg speed, 23.7 km/hr, although I did a lot of streches at about 27 km/hr, and a few at 33 km/hr or so. It was a little quicker going up than coming back, due to tiredness and headwind on the way back.
I was tempted to add on another 40 km and make it a metric century, but my enthusiasm for that faded around the 50 km mark. But I didn't bonk or anything, so I guess the grilled chicken on foccacia sandwich is working for me. Could have probably used some energy drink or something. Might have help a bit on the way back.
Next time I'll just carry the water bottle in my jersey and leave the backpack at home....
Lot of fun!
