Single Speed Jim

A couple of weeks ago I went out for a bike ride. (Aside: I miss going for rides almost daily, so I'm really looking forward to taking Alice out when she's old enough, but that's another story.) I needed to burn off some energy so I pushed as hard as I could. I did about 21.5 km in 1:00:06 (about an hour). It was slightly a new route because of a path closure, so I didn't really have a baseline. Along the way I got stuck at a couple of traffic lights but otherwise the traffic on the paths was light.

The other day I did the same route, but I took it a lot easier. The traffic on the paths was heavier, but I didn't get hung up at the 2 sets of lights as long. And I didn't slow down at the very end to send a text message. My time: 1:00:28 (about an hour). Apparently I only have 1 speed and it's about 21.5 km / hour.
