I know this seems really silly but it's the longest ride I have ever done!!
What is the longest ride for you?

Do we have to? There is already a thread on road biking that asks about longest distance in a day.

Well done on the 75 miles, though. Won't be long and you'll be tipping over the century mark.

Good job, 75 miles is a good number... 100 is not far away!

That's excellent! For me, 75 miles would still be a big day, though I've done a century twice (one was 103 miles circling Oahu - hills darn near killed me). I know, besides the two centuries, I've done 79 and recently did my biggest week where I rode 76, 46, 75, and 63 for 260 miles.

Hey don't forget that 75 miles also means you did more than a metric century!
