Lighten up, Francis, it was a joke. Your question was vague so I pointed out the absurdity of asking a bunch of strangers on a forum about how fit your are. Go on a few group rides or compare your segment times on Strava to get an idea of where you stand.

Checkout Strava if you want to get into comparisons of your routes and times.
For me, "Better than some, not as good as others."

What's going on in here? The question is "where is my fitness" then the first post is "thanks".

I think your fitness has gone to the place that shrinks our kit every winter.

Since I took the name Dick out.
We have members with that name and can you imagine them being referred to as **** all the time? Makes someone have a complex.

What do you want to do with your fitness? Race? Beat a friend? Chase Strava Segment PR’s? Drop people on your favorite group ride?
How do you currently “measure” fitness?

I'm looking for my fitness too. If you find a bunch of fitness somewhere let me know. Maybe some of it is mine.

After reading the entire thread and realizing that it has been modified to the point that there is no point to it, I tried to delete my post. Apparently, I can't. What is going on here?
