  • What do you reckon would be this acceptable average speed for a forum ride? I am letting my fear of not being able to keep up put me off attempting to join in. At some point. In the future.

  • Probably between 15-20mph.

    People go faster when they're together in a pack due to less wind resistance, so I wouldn't worry too much.

    When you go on forum ride, just speak up that you're worried about being slow, I doubt they'll leave you in the dust once you're doing less than 18mph.

  • It depends on the forum ride. HHSB slide to Cambridge will be quite a bit slower than AM Regent's laps (despite all the disc wheels on the former)

  • Yeah, I never solo 20mph. when I used to run a computer I was averaging around 16mph for 4+ solo hours, but in a group everything is much easier and quicker.
    @tracerbullet there are always the bridges and Circle rides which don't leave London.
