    I bike once a week on a stationary...so it's completely flat and I control the resistance completely. I go with very little resistance and keep a high cadence (about 90-100 rpm). I guess I do 13 miles in about 40 minutes or so, I can't really say for sure, as I don't place a lot of emphasis on the distance:time. I'm pretty sure that a couple of weeks ago I did a half-marathon on the bike and it was right at 45ish minutes.

    @Shue, 3:10 would give me a hard on. That's next after I hit 1:30.

    hmmm I thought bikes couldn't go on the highway. According to this, I can. Would it be wise to go with it to cut distance? or too risky with all the fast movin cars?

    I'd be wary of riding your bicycle on a highway. People I've seen do it are brave/stupid souls. Putting that much trust in human drivers going 55+ is scary.

    When the fuck did California become Great Britiain?

    I could swear you can set google maps to use a particular transportation route...by car, by foot, etc

    Edit: Yeah, not crazy- http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sour...30899&t=h&z=12

    there's actually other map sites made for foot/bike routes that have incline info(alot better than google and their terrain mode. but for road quality, traffic, and likely hood on getting hit up'd.. you'd have to actually poke around bike forums =/ like

    Midnight Ridazz Bicycle Ride

    you're best bet is to ask there for so. cal riding, but the path already said is pretty solid.

    "Highway" doesn't necessarily mean 2-4 lane divided highway with a 65mph speed limit. It includes the other marked routes that may just be your average street through the center of town.
