How Easy Should Recovery Rides Be

No idea? Maybe an e-bike? I’m Andrew not Sophia

Didn’t think of an E-bike despite having one for easy recovery & chill rides.

Depends on how much recovery is needed, just in case it hasn’t been said already.

Last recovery ride I did was a windy day and lots of stops. Averages: 12.5mph and 92W

With a friend who’s recovering from knee surgery.

Is data from a power meter?

You can set up Strava to estimate power. You need to input your weight and the weight of the bike. If you don’t select the bike you use or have not imputed the weight of the bike, your power is not estimated correctly.

Yes it’s from a power meter

That’s a pretty hefty wind, that will scrub off some speed. Did you ride on gravel or road? If both, what % on gravel?

Gravel bike on smooth bike paths. My friend doesn’t do traffic. We only knew about the wind when we turned round after the coffee shop.
