I'm writing this quickly after coming back from an 82km bike ride.

When I first started cycling, I didn't have a dedicated GPS unit, instead I just recorded my rides using my phone so that I could share them to Strava. I couldn't tell how fast I was going until afterwards, so my speed didn't matter; I was just riding for fun.
