On Thursday evening I mounted my 28″ wheel again on my recumbent with a heavy responsibility tire. I needed to strive that set-up out off-road. Yesterday I took it to Coyote Valley Open Area, Northeast of Morgan Hill, and it labored out tremendous, though I need to admit an upright bike with fats tires is healthier fitted to this. I then headed up north in direction of San Jose on Santa Teresa boulevard. I used to be shocked how briskly the bike felt, theoretically it ought to be barely much less aerodynamic than my arrange with two 20″ wheels, though that is perhaps offset as a result of the 28″ rear wheel has a bit much less rolling resistance. After about 90 minutes I circled, and located a had a extreme headwind to combat via to get residence. So this was a reasonably robust exercise, with a median coronary heart charge of 118. However I made it residence okay. Surprisingly, my common velocity was 12.6 mph which is a bit increased than I’ve been doing currently. So I assume 28/20 actually is quicker. Posted on Strava right here.
