If you are riding ten mles a few times a week, you can almost certainly go out for 20 miles today - try it! Or build up to it -- whatever you're comfortable with doing.
Don't forget to take water bottles and a snack. You don't need fancy energy products -- a nice cookie is a great mid-ride snack.
Let us know how it goes!
