well i wasn't sure if i should post this here or health/trainning.. but anyway here it goes.. so i'm only a few weeks in and only been able to go on actual rides about twice a week.. So today I got the chance to go out with some absolutly beautiful weather.. and i'm just looking to see where i stand starting out.... i guess using 0=just sad and pathetic, 10=high end of beginners spectrum..
so here is my ride today:
10.25 miles of gentle rolling hills
49:40 moving time (a couple crossings and a phone check/ pix at halfway point were my stopped time)
12.6mph avg speed.
27.4mph top speed.

and just for giggles here's a few pix i snapped at my start/finish point and the halfway point.

That seems pretty respectable to me, especially for someone new. Now we need to work on your photo composition.

k well thanks for the input!!.. lol actuly better than i expected to hear.. and i def open to photo critics, a KY hillbilly with a camara phone is never a good idea

Ya did well. Keep it up!

Heck that's not bad. And that bike is sweet looking! How old is it?

thanks guys lol def a moral boost... lol and i'm not 100% sure on the age of the bike.. i'm assuming mid-late 70's.. though the guy i bought it from def brought it back to life, rides amazing for an old steel frame bike!.

You are doing good. Keep it up. :thumbsup: I am envious of that bike path. Were you on that path for the whole ride?

Very good numbers to start with.
Very nice looking bike.

thank you for the compliments on my bike.. and yes for the most part the bike path is part of an old road so theres maybe 2-3 miles of it which vehicals are aloud on, but only to access houses, farm land etc...
