OT - I punched out 86, going for 100!
Yep....I nailed 86 miles on the bike today. I'm doing a century next week.

Sounds good Roger. I don't think you will have a problem with it if you
already did 86 miles. You are almost already there. You are kicking it ! Let us know how it goes. Curt "Roger Zoul" wrote in message ... Yep....I nailed 86 miles on the bike today. I'm doing a century next week. |

I wonder how many calories you burned?
It must be a huge number. "Roger Zoul" wrote in message ... Yep....I nailed 86 miles on the bike today. I'm doing a century next week. |

My HRM says 6158....average HR of 141, max of 170 (I've never had my HR go
above 176). Fitday says 4232...I haven't check my cycling software yet....it's lets me enter the climbing info too, when computing calories burned. However, it was quite windy out yesterday, and that makes riding tougher, and either of the software tools I use account for wind resistance. I don't rely on these numbers too much, though...I just eat according to how the body feels. If I don't eat some carbs after one of the long rides, I have real problems.
