Every week readers send me questions via e-mail, which I answer individually. However, I believe that most of these questions interest a wider audience than just one single person. Thus, I would like to post some of these reader questions in a weekly post for a beginning. I’m going to answer specific reader questions every Friday from now on. If you have questions on your mind, feel free to use the form below.
The first blog post with questions and answers will be on the 21st of November.

Hi, I am a 59 y/o, 6'3", 178lb cyclist. I am trying to increase my avg mph during rides. I live in Colorado and train hills and flats. I usually ride with men/women who are in their 30's and 40's and we are always separated by at least 2-3 mph.
I can do mountain rides like the Triple Bypass so the distance is never the question up to 120 miles. It is just speed over that distance.
Is it realistic at my age that I can beef up my overall speed up hills and try to keep up with the pack? I am lost as far as what to use for training methods that will give me the biggest bang for the buck.
Thanks.>>>Ed

Hi!
I'm currently training for a 3900 mile tour next summer. I have been a runner for the past 6 years and I have only switched to serious cycling recently. I started training in September, so I've probably been training for about 12 weeks. I'm averaging about 70 miles cycling a week at this point, as well as walking and running. My question is, I've been 140lbs since I was a teenager and now I'm 145. I noticed the change when I stopped running and started cycling. What's the reason for this? Am I doing something wrong or is this normal? I want to make sure my body is ready for next summer! Thanks!
