RE: Let's talk about Cycling!

I'm doing about 4000 a year. Tough months are ahead because we both live in the same country, and winter is coming!

4000 a year with just two days is great. Cool to see how you are enjoying your new hobby. And the increase of 'gadgets' is really recognizable too 😂

Staying below 124 seems very boring

Slow rides can be boring indeed. But they are good for your endurance and fitness.
A lot of 'experts' advise a 80% low heart rate training (zone 2-3) and 20% intensive (zone 4-5). That is how MVDP trains as well. Only his low heart rate speed is above 30 kilometers an hour 😀

I do my weekly commuting rides easy on and do a faster ride in the weekends.
But I don't have to become a professional.

Exactly, I don't have to become a professional 👌😁

Yeah I'm a sucker for gear and gadgets! 🤣

Same here.... love mine power-meter definitely not necessary for my level or cycling. Again data / analyses / fun 🤣

Enjoyed three episodes from the 'Beter Worden' podcast this morning while driving for work, thanks for the tip!

A power meter is great, a bit expensive and since I'm on a MTB not necessary but I totally understand, numbers are fun :)

You should share your rides in the cycling community once in a while, and did you know Strava2Hive auto posts your Strava rides here? (I use another hive account for this)
