I'm setting a couple biking goals. I've been biking inside during rain (and watching the tour) a bit, and outside. So I've tried some different stuff.
Sprint: my fastest sprint speed yesterday was 22.9 mph.
Goal: 23.5 mph. (Mark Cavendish goes upwards of 40mph.)
Sprint: my longest sprint interval yesterday was 45 seconds.
Goal: 1 minute.
Trainer: my fastest 10 miles is at 18 mph (with the lowest resistance setting)
Goal: 10 miles at 20 mph.
I just cannot get over the way Cav accelerates for those sprints. When you go past the best sprinters in the world like they're standing still, it's pretty mind-blowing. We New Zealanders are so pleased to see our Kiwi lad Julian Dean do so well!
