Hello Tom,

thanks for your oppinion. You confirmed me to do carefully on this
hill... I will *not* try this 2:20.. I only estimatated this could be
her max.speed (but this could also be far missed).
Actually she has fun going this in 3:06, and if the fun ends at 2:50, I
will quit that...
That 200 HR mark sounds reasonable to me. If I get a saddle on again (a
small ;-[ girth sore at the moment) I will check it with my HRM.
The last time I had it on, and we made a small burst of speed, (at the
end of a 25mile ride), it went 180...156...132...116...90...76 - in half
a minute. amazing.
But I think there's still enough time to make some serious intervall
work... don't want to cut the hills in halfs... that's only a prelude..
endurance first..

thanks Frank
