Record appears to be just over 305 miles. It would suggest someone is cheating on endo though if it appears to be an "average"
317.9 in 12 hours. Andy Wilkinson (PSW) in 2012.

541 in 24 hours by the same fella the year before.

If you've seen the state of him trying to get off the bike at the end of the 24h it's very much something you do once or twice a season, not on average!

You are going to need to provide some more info if you wish to know if someone has been doing plausible rides. You say this person does an average of 300 miles, over what period? What spread of milage? What is the actual endo challenge?

The difference is he didn't just ride it, he raced it.

Were talking 253 miles in just under 13 hours yet in another workout its 8miles in 35mins there's just no sense in it
I'm not in the same league but I've done a 20mph sportive one day and a 13mph recovery ride the next; its sometimes good to have a gentle spin rather than seize up. Back to the original post I think the most I've done is 190miles but I've done a few 300miles over two days, so 253 is pretty feasible, some folk (and hats off to them) do 600km Audaxes.

It can easily get even more extreme than that.

One day I can ride a 10 mile TT at cca 25mph, and the next go off-road and spend two hours on a 16 mile MTB race.

If you want a simple answer, how about providing a simple bit of information, i.e. what the challenge is!

OK so say the challenge is to do the most miles does that help you to answer whether 300miles is a plausible daily average?

No, that does not help because you are still omitting the crucial information of what period of time the challenge runs for?

A 300 mile per day average for 5 days is a completely different thing to a 300 mile per day average for a year!

Which would equate 6 x around the world! Now there's a challenge :thumbsup:

LMAO, other people making things difficult? Are you kidding, you are the only one making things difficult, by failing to ask a simple question in a way that can be answered. As stated, your question can not be answered.

So I'm in a couple of challenges on endo' and even though I don't expect to be high in the rankings I was quite shocked when looking at what some of the top people do, averages of up to 300 miles a day

What do most people do, or is there some cheating going on...
