27 & 29 mph????

Please tell me there was either a tailwind or downhill. Or both.

No matter what it was, chapeau!

There may have been a little assist from the wind. I actually had to cut my ride short as the crosswind sections were too dangerous. But I've ridden these segments a bunch and have never come close, even with tailwinds.

Riding with an upstart 50 year old with power numbers a third greater than mine, pushed me to two KOMs for my age bracket on two climbs. Managed four PRs as well. Moral to the story: ride with someone younger and stronger.

I do a couple rides every week on the cycling course at Yoyogi Park in Tokyo. I was surprised to find that I was the fastest this year, and the 14th fastest of all time for any age group (4th fastest for over 55), and I’ve only been consistently back on the bike for 8 weeks.

Nicest day of the year so far. had lunch with my dad that resulted in a bit of a route change. ended up with 14 PRs today. looks like there will be more lunches in our future.

Nabbed a 4th and 10th overall today on some heavily used segments… Did it during a 20 min interval, not full gas but pushing it a bit.

Took a KOM/Segment away from a friend a few days ago. I'm close to 30 years older than he is and beat him by one second. The best part is the segment didn't show up on my Garmin and I didn't even know I took it away from him until I got home that evening. I enjoyed teasing him on Strava hehehe.

Or with someone on an e-bike.
