I had to do some running around putting in resumes for work today. I decided that is was a good time to take the A-bicycle in to town as well. With the computere mounted on it and most of the problems with the bike either fixed or at least identified that could happen, I enjoyed taking the bike out after doing some job hunting.
I took the bike to a section of bike path in London, Ontario, Canada. From this spot, I took off on a ride. Up to this point, I was getting about a speed of 12kph for an average speed. The traffic levels in my home town are on the low side. My run on the London ride took on a mix of bike path and roads. The ride lasted for 36:35 minute/ seconds. I was surprized at rest of the run. The total distance I rode was 8.6 km in length. My average speed was 14.1 kph! The max speed was 25.1 kph and this was going down on slight grades on the pathway and road sections. On the road, I found myself holding speeds in the 18 to 20 kph range and holding this with comfort. I was running around the 90 rpm pedaling range. I figure that this doing good when you factor in the small wheel size and dual chain being used.
That is for now. I keep liking this type of small wheeled more and more.
