Did some one call you a "Taliban Wheeler?!" - I don't know what this means, but in case it is not really all that complimentary, I would like to say...thanks for your very supporting comments, really very appreciated...although I got my doubts about if you can ride 10miles you can ride 60, but I can give it a damn good try!
You're welcome I'm sure.
My status as 'Taliban Wheeler' I take as a back-handed compliment though it was meant as an insult I'm sure.
Everyone who has only ridden N miles doubts they can ride N x2, x3, x4, x5 or x6 miles before, and when, they set off on their first FNRttC. (I'd not ridden further than 25 miles on the road in one go in the 10 years before my first one)
Having done so they often still can't believe they did it, despite the reality of being stood in the queue for breakfast 60 miles form London.
The best way, by some margin, to do it for the first time is FNRttC.
