Well done Martin!
How about a 150 miler as a step between 200k (124 miles) and 300k (186 miles)? (Mind you, it would be tempting just to add the extra 36 miles to get the 300 done, wouldn't it!)
I've had a quick look on the Audax site and I reckon the Heart of England 300 would be ideal for you!
I'm glad to have spotted it for you!Colin, I've entered this event now
Martin
I'm glad to have spotted it for you!
I'll probably tackle a 300 one day when I'm fit again but I'd want to have done at least 2 or 3 comfortably sub-10 hour 200s first.
I did The Other Fleet Moss Randonee in 10 hours in 2006 but have lost a lot of that fitness now, so I was thinking in terms of getting back to that level, and then a bit quicker to make a 300 doable in daylight.Colin, if I had to do some comfortable sub 10 hour 200s first I would never do a 300. I struggle to do sub 11 hours I think I will have to try and improve a bit between now and April.
Well done! (But it seems odd that you rode quicker in a 300 than in your 200s, unless they were much hillier?)I'd never broken 11-1/2 hours for a 200, but came in just under 15 hours on my first 300 last year (The Rough Diamond for anyone that fancies it)
