Training objective: 90 minutes hard ride with the cadence between 65-75 rpm's and the heart rate at 155-160 bpm's.
I know it was supposed to be 90 minutes, but went longer to take into account the slower urban start and finish (I wanted to make sure I got 90 minutes of hard riding in). I used the last 30 minutes or so as a cool-down, beginning with a tempo pace (with a short bridge sprint thrown in for good measure), then slowing down from there.
All kinds of weather on this ride - yikes. Super windy at times - was going over 50 km/hr and out of gears on a couple of segments, then working hard to keep it at 25 in others...
Narrowly avoided getting creamed by cars 2x due to glare - polarized lenses are a must in this light. Very slippery on the cobbles and tram rails the last 10 minutes on the slick Schwalbe tires. Normal training route had 2 detours due to road excavation; the 2nd one I didn't notice until I found myself riding through loose dirt/mud.
12 PR's and a total of 17 "achievements" on Strava this ride. FWIW, I used the lap/split function to mark the 1st 60 minutes, then the next 30 minutes and finally the "cool down". You'll see the max speeds for were 50 km/hr for the first 90 minutes - I was working it!
Oh, and just before putting on my cycling shoes and heading out, I banged my toe on a table leg. Didn't think anything of it until I got back and was in the shower - gee, that's not grease on my foot, it's an already-black bruise. hmm, looks like I may have done the ride with a broken toe....
One word to summarize the ride: Exciting!
