I took my recumbent with my new and improved drivetrain for a 3-hour plus cruise at present. What a distinction a non-squeaky and non-rattling chain makes! After a warmup, I averaged 14.7 mph for two hr 27 minutes at a median coronary heart price of 115. This was a superb tempo. The one mistake I made was I had my Garmin GPS watch in “bike mode”, which I’ve set as much as present present pace and coronary heart price on the primary display screen. Trying on the pace too typically distracted me from “meditation in movement”. Subsequent time I do an identical journey I’ll use time and coronary heart price as my predominant display screen, not look as typically, and simply deal with being current and having fun with the journey.
