Hi, just bought some SPD peddles today as a treat following my 40th and took the bike out for a 12 mile spin to get used to it before I go back to work on Monday. Anyway, joy of joys!! I grabbed myself a new Personal Best today with an average mileage mileage of over 13 mph. This got me thinking about what other small changes I could make to me/my bike to up my average even further. I know that there is only so much you can squeeze out of an MTB with road wheels, but I would love some suggestions of getting my average up close to 14mph before spring next year when I am thinking of investing in a road bike.
Also whilst on the subject of SPD peddles, this fist ride was spent getting used to them, but I am also aware that technique is everything so suggestions on how I can increase the power in my upward stroke [all the time] would also be a great help.
Kind rgds,
Kato [Carl]
