Today, I decided I was going to ride a true Elephant Rock distance. So I left the house and got on the now-familiar Santa Fe trail, and headed north. But this time, I rode past Monument; past Palmer Lake; and kept on going until I got to Spruce Mountain. A distance of 12.7 miles each way, or 25.4 miles round trip - including about 2 miles of single-track trail in the Spruce Mountain area.
The ride took me 2 hours and 33 minutes, or about 10 miles per hour average. That's respectable (at least it is for me anyway).I still need to do some more hill work. I'm not very happy with my performance on those yet. Don't get me wrong, I don't have to walk them or anything. I would just like to be stronger on them.
