OK.
Humour me for a second. My long time cycling buddy has just asked if I want to join him in the LEL next year. The wife has said go for it. Work will give me the time off.
So, the only real obstacle is that this would be my (and his) first Audax, and that neither of us has ever ridden more than 110 miles in a day. I'm on an SMGTe, he's on a Marin San Anselmo. We both currently ride around 10 miles per week, so its quite a ramp up....
So... anyone got any idea about how to make this a reality without it killing either of us? We've got 272 days to go I guess, which is longer than I had to train for the marathon, and that seemed to work...
