      Oooh, maybe I'll find a pair of "long and lean" ones in there! Need to go check that puppy out :) These short legs on my 5'8" frame don't do me many favors. Many people are surprised I have a 51 frame - haha. Workin' what I got!

      Nice Job:

      A long time ago, a good friend and great biker told me the speed doewn't matter, I need to work on the cadence. Had me started at an average of 70 RPM and over, and gradually increase that average. To this day, that's how I ride :-)

      Thank you Helene. He's been trying to work with me on cadence, but it's tough on hills and I had switch my computer to distance at the last rest stop and forgot to switch it back. Hubby is usually getting on me to pick a higher gear because it looks like I'm bouncing or spinning when in reality I'm not, so sometimes I have that going in the back of my head. My head was definitely winning and not in the right way that day :/

      That's funny that the instructor would care about that! Haha!!! I always gage everything by fit of clothes, strength of legs and endurance depending on fatigue etc. and speed. Weeeelllll, unless I eat too many Oreos or Doritos, then I might gage a workout by calories!!! Hahahahahaha!!! Another fun weekend ahead of you!!! You are rockin' the pedals!! Woo hoo!

      You got this Helene - the cold is packing up. It'll be sunny, with a high near 73. Sounds like this cold spell is just temporary. I look forward to reading about your ride :)
