I've turned over 800kms on the odometer this afternoon (isn't a lot compared to some, I know)and I feel like I have a spring in my step now

I do get passed a bit by more seasoned riders. I've been tracking my progress using Sports Tracker on the iPhone, and I'm averaging about 23-24km/hr. Still have to build up the quads, I guess.

Having fun, though!
Nice work! Pretty quick too! I do 14km on the 29er mountain bile / quite hilly in about 50min.
