Thats fair enough. When you have the cash I cannot recommed it enough. You will absolutely love it. It will make a big difference to your training.

That depends on how far you ride as well as the terrain. I have been back on the bike for 5 weeks now and I'm up to 10 hours per week. Riding by myself I'm averaging 25 to 28 km/h and in a bunch/race 35 to 45 km/h. The overall average for the week is usually around 30 km/h.
