Bicycling 30Km
Saturday, June 9th, 2007Yet again a very nice and rather hot summer day here in Denmark. I decided to try to alter my 26Km route and make it a bit longer by looking at maps (on the internet where else ? - I use www.map24.dk). I managed to find a little detour without having to pass towns that I thought could have traffic lights or other annoying obstacles.
And I was right, my detour was really good - going through very nice nature and passing nice fields etc. It was a bit hilly too but that’s what I like. Only downside was that most of the road was rather narrow and there was quite a lot of curves so it’s not that fast but in some way it makes it fun too. The total distance ended with 30.6 Km (19 miles).
Well all in all this new route was great and I will for sure use it again. I was not pushing to get a good time, especially on the detour as I have never been on those roads before, but at the end with about 8 Km left I started to push a little - guess you know me…. I ended up with a great average speed of 30.5 Km/h (almost 19 miles/h).
