This weekend, I'm just working on strength, but will probably do another century the next weekend and a 100k on the following.
Aside from that, it's the 6.7 mile commute from Belmont to downtown everyday for the past year or so. Glad, for once, to be able to commute again with just one layer.
Good golly!
Bravo brevet! I've never tackled an organized ride more than 100k. Maybe this year. I've got good lights now and I'm testing new orthotics. Sore feet are my weak link. ....Ok that and my sense of navigation.
SpokenW, so daily commuter miles between long weekend rides? Wow.
