In my latest blog post, I explored the possibility of cycling 26 miles in just 45 minutes. It's a challenging feat, considering it requires maintaining an average speed of around 35 mph, which is quite fast for a cyclist. Professional cyclists usually average between 25-28 mph during races, making this task even more daunting. So, while it's theoretically possible, it's extremely difficult and likely beyond the reach of most cyclists, including myself. However, it's always good to aim high and push our limits!

Cycling shoe stiffness is really crucial for anyone who loves to ride. It's all about power transfer, the stiffer the shoes, the more power from your legs gets transferred directly to the pedals. This can help you ride faster and more efficiently, especially if you're tackling hills or long distances. On the flip side, too much stiffness can cause discomfort and even numbness, so it's all about finding the right balance for you. So, don't underestimate the importance of shoe stiffness when picking out your next pair of cycling shoes.
