• Mileage and Climbing

    From Tom Kunich@21:1/5 to All on Tue Dec 31 21:25:36 2024
    I got back from the last ride of the year. Although my mileage and
    climbing have been seriously effected by the loss of the hill roads, I
    still put in 137,000 feet of climbing(about 42,000 meters) and 4,448 miles (about 7200 kilometers).

    I hope to improve on this next year since there was a lot of problems this
    year like getting Shingles in July which would normally be a high mileage
    month and having it rain for more than a week steady in December when it
    is normally a dry month. Rain around here is normally in March and April.

    Nevertheless, that isn't bad for an 80 year old. Flunky has gotten in less
    than 1,000 miles and Krygowski what? 500? Liebermann got in 6 miles which wasn't bad considering his physical condition. Juhn talked about the old
    days when he used to ride a bicycle.

    I can remember bsck when the only people on the group were riders. But
    after Jobst published what he thought was my address, half of the group
    left and never came back. Part of that was that his publishing my mother's address was just the last straw since most of the group didn't like the
    group being largely about Jobst. What we need is Flunky telling us all
    about Jobst when he wasn't here while Jobst was posting and leading rides.

    You might have gotten more mileage in if you would stop obsessing about me.

    But to reply to yet another of your lies:

    https://www.strava.com/athletes/16053273
    2024
    Distance 2,847.1 mi
    Elev Gain 160,297 ft

    I'm not all that concerned about mileage. Strava shows an overall
    average speed for the year of 17.2 MPH. Considering that about 25% of
    those miles were on the mountain bike with average speeds about 10MPH,
    I'm exceptionally happy with an overall average of over 17.

    and Krygowski what? 500? Liebermann got in 6 miles which
    wasn't bad considering his physical condition. Juhn talked about the old days when he used to ride a bicycle.

    Seems the two most obsessive people in this group are also the most consistently unhappy ones.

    Yes, it's sad to see the sum total of someones life reduced to that


    I hope everyone else has a happy and productive 2025!

    I don't obsess over lying cowards, I just call them what they are. You
    did not avarage 17 mph on a garmin and you did not do several 200 o9ne
    day rides, you are simpoly lying. Your milage is far too low to put you
    in shape for the bullshit you're claiming. Pro racers cannot do what
    you're claiming. You put your Garmin in your car and drove those miles. I came back from a ride in a car on the freeway and the Garmin said 25 mph average. Give us more of your bullshit.

    He didn’t say he did 200 mile rides, but that he averaged 17mph which seems to tally with a very brief snoop at his Strava account with 23mph TT and so
    on.

    Ie he did what he claimed to do!
