The weather outside (overcast, 44 degrees) ruled out biking outside. I wanted to stay with a group to get the advantage of drafting. I started out around 205th position and as the raced progressed I caught groups in front of me moving up to 145th by the end of the race (259 racers showed on the ride position list).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The race traveled 10.74 miles in 28:15 and while I averaged 22.8 mph my maximum speed only came to 31.8 mph. I think that shows my speed consistency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tour de Zwift: Stage 1 (D)\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pwd3tDdSTog?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Strava recorded at least 3 personal records but as I scrolled down the segments listing in Strava I saw several more.
