Yeah, that sucks, I wouldn't do it if I had ore than a few trainer rides.

I remember my highest year I did 7300 miles. Plenty of it was on GMR riding 5000-7000 miles training for a ride. Some lady said because I rode on the trail with a tank top that I wasn't a real cyclist.

Not that I consider myself a cyclist, I consider my self a rider and only wear jersey snow to carry my recorders.. But I looked at her journal as she had it open for viewing ,as I did mine. Half her rides were indoors by the fireplace reading a book averaging 26 mph. All her outdoor rides were averaging 14 MPH. Mine were all outdoors!

I don't even consider comparing myself to someone with trainer miles. In your case, I'd not consider it the same, phooey!
