I did a 600k at 29kph average a few months back, it's nice to be able to go a bit faster on long distances
In between brevets, I did a few 24 hour races. I found those to be a completely different mental challenge. There's something about the clock; no matter how fast you go, it's still 24 hours. You have to find motivation somewhere else, not finish time or finishing earlier. It's kinda weird.
