Amazing Morning to Ride A Bike in Wellington

I got out for a totally fantastic ride this morning. Just went on my own but half way around realized I really should have got my %&^$%* together and called @RowanSimpson so sorry fella! Sunday maybe?

I went for what I felt was a fairly cruisy ride, but, unless my power meter is telling porkies it was actually a pretty decent ride. I’ll usually do about 280 Watts average for a 2.5hr (60-70km) ride but this morning average was 310 Watts. Hopefully this means that I’m improving both fitness and leg strength.

Was basically a flat ride. Came down from Karori, around the Mirimar peninsula to Happy Valley Road, turned around and came back again to the office. Out @ 0530hr in the office by 0800hr- marvellous!

Got a lovely photo coming back around the peninsula as the sun came up.

What device do you use for recording your training data? I've been using Nokia's SportsTracker app to record GPS data but want to move up to a better unit so I can link in heart-rate activity too. The Garmin 310XT seems to cover all bases, GPS for altitude/distance, and you can get accessories for heart-rate, pedal cadence, and running cadence.
