Catching up to do with new PB

Monday knackered knees rest day so slow bike rides 5 miles x2 max 15mph
Researched knee problems, right probably too much extension on pedal turn, left probably poor technique or poor cleat fit.

Tuesday slow, 15mph max, 5 mile bike rides x2
Researched bike fit, hi tech video analysis of ride, £180 quid a throw, forget that idea and buy 50p worth of painkillers, adjust saddle height and concentrate on pedal technique.

Wednesday faster bike rides x2 5 miles and 1 hour spin session, hill climbs, no pain from right side, pain easing on left

Thursday faster bike ride in av speed 18 mph 5 miles slower return 5 miles, big blue lorry tried to kill me, 80 mins on cross trainer 1011 cals av bpm 134 max 150

Friday, today, massive attack on ride in 12mins 16 seconds, big blue lorry went past me very carefully, av speed 21.2 mph slow return as puncture, even with slime tubes a 110 psi.

New personal best on anticlockwise circuit of Bonsai Mountain 18 mins 35 seconds 273 cals av hr 145 max hr 160 beats previous time on June 3rd of 20 mins 50 ish.
