Yeah, my previous "Longest Ride" of 40 miles was only last month!Go for it! I know full well that all my little regular 20 mile rides kept me from hurting like hell after my 70 ride.
It seemed to me that once I was able to do the 50 miler, the 70 seemed not too different.
Mimi- piece of cake?? Hmmmm....sure.....Have you ridden a 100 mile/1day ride yet on a bike that isn't a tandem?- just curious.
Robin- This ride was all in NY- south of us to Tivoli and back. Last month we did go into MA to Great Barrington & West Stockbridge, and then back to Chatham NY again- that was a 52 miler. I think we have decided not to ride to Northfield- the climbing route there is just too nasty for us right now, and no good way around it. So instead, our next goal is to ride down to Kingston NY (+/- 60 miles?) stay overnight with some friends, and ride back. They promised they'd make us a big lasagna!![]()




My longest is 40 so far. Higher goals to aim for!
