doing a 100mile ride in september. most ive ridden so far is 65miles. i feel with good nutrition while riding i could prob do the 100 miles now. im curious to hear what training you think i should be doing.
im currently riding to work 4/5 times a week (7 miles each way) and if im on an earlier shift ill go back out and do another 20 miles or so.
on my days off i've been doing some 30-50 mile rides but with more of an emphasis on intervals and climbing. should i continue with the shorter 30mile or so rides which are more vigorous or focus on building endurance by putting in loads of miles every week.
biggest factor for me since starting has been weight but ive lost 3stone now and also got myself a lighter / faster bike. hills are definately easier now.
