paddle (double ski) 45:47 [3] 7.44 km (6:09 / km)
The first paddle for Karl's carbon Fenn Elite double. I do not like being in the back of a double, I got drenched from water coming off Karl's paddle.
We also did a stint with me in the front and I didn't like that either, at least when I was in the back I could *try* to match Karl's cadence but from the front I could tell we were out of sync but not do much about it.
Overall I feel no need to ever paddle in a double ski again! A worthwhile experiment.
bike ride (fwy south bike path) 1:09:07 [3] 28.82 km (2:24 / km)
weight:56.8kg shoes: road bike
I'm getting the hang of this road bike, this was the fastest pace I've ever done on a bike and I wasn't pushing too hard. I felt more comfortable on the hoods today, mainly because I knew for the majority of the time that I would not need to brake. :-)
Nobody passed me (ok it was 5:30pm on a Saturday night and hardly anyone was out) and I passed several other people, including a guy on a skinny-tyre mtb with aero bars who latched on. I felt like a real cyclist, having picked up a leech who drafted off me (how?? I'm under 57kg!!) for about 5km.
