Serious recovery ride

I'm told recovery rides should be very slow....like Zone 1 or 2.

So, I took my kid for a ride around the block last night. Him on his 16" single-speed complete with training wheels, coaster brake and bell. Me on my 1987 Free Agent BMX bike, complete with rust.

His winter and early spring training have really paid off (being on a tag-a-long behind my Wal-Mart MTB...), as he made it all .7 miles around the block including the uphill of our street (<1% grade..).

Last year, I would have walked beside him. He's faster now :)

Crits tonight...oughta be slightly faster ;)
