I'm feeling pretty tough right now, outside of a city I'm sure I could put down a sub 6 hour solo century as long as it didn't have a ton of climbing, and a week ago I went out with plans to ride this hub/bike 50 miles and I went so hard for 2 hours (in a city, lot of stops wrecking average speed) that I had to call it quits at 36 miles, considering how easily I've been blowing down centuries lately it took some pretty serious self abuse to empty the tank in 2 hours. Its kind of a bucket list item though, "Blew up NOS sturmey hub in 350 miles." Although this one does have a weak 3rd according to Sheldon Brown, I don't think its possible for a guy to my size (164 pounds currently) to blow up an AW with the 46/20 gearing that I'm running.
