Microsoft just reported its Q4 earnings and the news is mixed. The good news: it's a beat on both profit and revenue, excluding extraordinary items. Microsoft reported: Earnings per share of 62 cents versus expected EPS of 58 cents. $22.2 billion in revenue versus expected revenue of 22.04 billion.
First ride today on my first road bike (been a mountain biker until now). Averaged 13mph on a rolling route with a couple of sharp climbs. I'm quite pleased with that considering I'm still learning the bike, how to use the gears, ratios etc. I also expect it is going to take me a while to get faster.
I have an average Raliegh 29er mountain bike. I have my skinny slicks that I use for triathlons. I typically cover the 30 mile bike portion in two hours or an average speed of 15 mph. I do not live in a flat city. It's not uncommon for me to hit 34â35 mph on a few of the downhills I ride. For the most part, on pavement, I can maintain almost the same speed on my fat off-road tires. On clay and sand, I'm slower.
