Now, i know this has come up before in the past, but i just happened to be thinking about it, and
besides, it could be a benefit to the new folks.
Riding alone, i know i tend to have a higher percentage of thinking geared toward exhaustion, my
level of endurance (or lack thereof), and every little incline i have to ride up. But riding with a
buddy, most of the time i am talking, or "showing off" (term used very lightly). i don't usually
think about how tired i am, or every little incline. if nothing, there is a hidden competition that
keeps me at the same rate of endurance as the person i am riding with. For instance, if i was to
ride with one of the Pros here (again, term used lightly ;-), i would most likely keep up. of
course, after the ride completed, i would keel over and die, but that's not the point. ;-)
So, for all those folks out there who have trouble with endurance, find a riding buddy. it just may
help you out. if nothing else, you will have somebody to call for help when you complete the ride,
then keel over and
die.;-)
