Took another turn on the bike today, another 15 or so miles to Tracy Owen Station in Kenmore and back. Pretty uneventful, though the replacement pedals I just got were harder to get into than the old ones. I lost some time on the outbound leg messing with the left one.
For today’s adventure, I decided to forego speed and concentrate on cadence, or spinning. I find a cadence of 85-90 to be pretty comfortable so I tried to keep it there and just use the gears to keep me on track. That worked pretty well: I was pretty tired when I was done, so it must have done me some good. My speed on the outbound was about 17 mph and on the return into the wind, about 14. My cadence was not as good in the last couple of miles, but it gives me something to work on.
