Mysterious shortness of breath: What has helped you?

I have to cycle pretty hard to become short of breath, but with the distances and time that I cycle I wouldn’t expect that to happen.
Ivan ride for hours at a low heart rate is about 70%, but when I push up to about 80% and higher I seem to develop a breathing problem.

I wonder if you're simply pushing too hard than what your body can take. It may benefit you to, even for a few days or a week or so, to do like a low/medium effort exercises where you're below the 80% heart rate or lower and cut back on the amount of time and see if that improves things.
