Your longest ride (on a MTB)?

I've just recalled my final day (last year) of the transpennie trail which we followed religiously... it wasn't on mountain bikes, but on off-road touring bikes that had camping kit, stoves, autumn weight sleeping bags (so basically winter weight)... It was 128km or 80 miles and mostly off-road. That was really hard work despite it being the last day of a 2 week touring holiday and us being exceptionally fit by then. It was up and over the Pennies with around 90-100km off road. We started at 6:30am and got home 13 hrs later!

Longest ride in 1 day without stopping (apart from a wee break:blush:) was the Leeds Liverpool canal last year, 132miles* West to East in 9hrs 29mins :dance:

Plus several miles to and from the end of the route as well.

I ride sections of the Canal but at the Leeds end. I do plan to explore more of it, but not that sort of distance for a longtime! fantastic effort
