Training 11-7-12

Maiden voyage in the Quest XS (open cockpit). 30 miles to Galt. Only 21.8mph average. This is much slower than I expected. Yesterday's unfaired trike ride was 21.1mph average. Granted the wattage was significantly higher yesterday but I would have done at least 19mph average today. I was expecting to at least average 25mph today, not a measly less than 3mph increase. The position is more open and quad-centric so I'll need some time to acclimate. Oh well, I'm sure it will all work out in the end.
