Longest ride.

[PeteXXX]

After riding to London for the London~Brighton (78 miles) on the Saturday, doing the L2B 2014 on the Sunday( 56 miles), A mate and I rode back home to Northampton on the Monday...

Longest ride to date, 131 miles. (265 over the three days)

In a single day - 132: https://www.strava.com/activities/84428676/overview
Overnighter - 143: https://www.strava.com/activities/20452769/overview

Haven't ridden a ton in about 2 years though, so not much of a distance specialist these days!

Lightweight!

145 miles 4 or 5 times.

I have plans to do the West Yorkshire Cycle Route in a day which would be ~155 miles. I devised a coast-to-coast route from Scarborough to Blackpool which is also about 155 miles but has the added challenge of needing to be done in about 12 hours so I can catch the first train of the day to the start and the last train of the day home!

The thing that makes these rides hard is the climbing on top of the distance. We are probably talking 8,000 - 10,000+ ft on some of those rides.

edit... Longest without a cake break? Probably 100km (~65 miles)...Edit That's way too far without cake, coffee and perhaps a pint. I sometimes stop on the way to the back gate for a quick cake!

241.8 miles in 16 hours 36 minutes ride time, toying with doing a 300 miler this year

237 miles in 24 hours, that was the first day of London Edinburgh London, which I completed in 116hrs and 7 mins. London to John O groats took 8 days and last year Silverstone -Monza 8 and a half days 846 miles and 59000ft climbing.

Wow a 300 miler, that's ambitious. I would like to do a 200 miler this year.

418km (260 miles) while training for LEL (which I didn't complete) in 2013 from just north of Scotch Corner to Lincoln and back. Took me 26hrs.

I'm toying with the idea of doing an Audax Super Randonneur series next year (200km, 300km, 400km, 600km) so if I go for that then hopefully I'll beat it.

Touring I did around 950 miles in two weeks from London-JOG and then round the top of Scotland in 2012. No plans on trying to beat that yet.

Yes, I was hoping to do PBP this year (1200) but I probably won't get there.

You will if you want to - and take it from me, LEL is, weather aside, considerably tougher than PBP. The support on PBP will make you ride another km or so faster an hour! Get through your qualifiers and spend July riding as hard and fast as you can over short(ish) distances (anything up to 200km (ish)), and you will be just fine.

No idea what the furthest I have ridden in one go - 603km in the 24, done a few 600s with no sleep, so probably something like 620km on some of them (but more in 30+ hours).

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Single ride 158 miles took just over 9 and half hours. Pondering doing a 200 miler this year.

Much kudos to all you audaxers

66 miles for me (but I have only been riding six months )
Kudos to you big milers

220 miles September last year. Doncaster to home, with @rb58 of this parish.
Planning to better that figure this weekend with a 230 miler.
