Actually , I'm in agreement with Darcy and SK - you can't compare your miles to another persons miles - too many variables , (body, bike, goals) and it's a trap that too many people get into - If i do the xxxK brevet , ill be ahead of Studette on bike journal. The number of hits on my journal there only increase right after I do a brevet. And that's one of the reasons I DNF'ed my last one - I just riding to get back to start, and not having a lot of fun (I usually send an invoice to folk who make me work and not have fun )
