Nice job! I've gone 325 miles in 24 hrs (20 hours of moving time), 16.3 mph avg moving speed. In hindsight, I wish I had ridden faster, since I definitely had more left in my tank at the 24 hr mark, but I picked a finishing pace, instead of a winning pace, because finishing my first (and only) 24 hr ride, and having fun doing it, was more important than winning. To get your kind of mileage I would've had to ride an avg of 20 mph, instead of 16.3, or taken less than 4 hours of breaks, either of which might have broken me.
