Nope. It doesn't touch the Taff Trail. It is 99% A roads.

Distance is a funny thing. I'll get asked how far I've been and will say "Oh, just a quick 20miler" when to the person asking it is like I did Lejog.
I figure as I will never be fast I should work on distance instead

Best of luck with it. Eat well, hydrate and you will be fine.

If you can do 80 you can do 100. I only failed last time as I messed up my route plan on Mapmyride by a few miles.

I found 80 pretty hard work to be honest.
You must also take into consideration that i havnt got an exspensive new bike.

I did a short outing of 40 today() and would of loved to of gone further, but had family stuff to do this afternoon.

Back in April I struggled to do a 5mile commute to work, I remember arriving sweaty, legs shaking and dreading the return journey home. Still grinding and seem to have three bikes in the shed
