Re: Rugby NAMA thread Revisited Rugby
I've made do with the 2km zone, put 100km in in it on Friday, so it can be done (but probably shouldn't be). You're as bad as the rest of them. How does a 100km cycle count as brief exercise? You're right. Felt bad after. Usually limit myself to 30km or so or an hour when on the bike in the zone.
