I did 13 miles one ride (3 hours, 40 mins), then the same ride again a few days later (1 hour 10), and felt OK, so the enxt time I did 23 miles or so in 3 hours (which accounted for stops to look at amp and avoid getting shot at) and hit a wall at about 20 miles. I think this is more down to lack of decent food and it being a warm day.
I only get about an hour a day to myself, but it's pretty much all been on roads so my average speed has been better than off-road would be.

Off road biking is the bestest fun, have excellent tyres makes it even better.. I plan my routes to be offroad as much as possible although this does make for a slower average speed, I enjoy it more.
I'll have to look at that site and find some good off-road sections. They seem much more fun, and a more peaky pace so not so monotonous. I'm off to Delamere Forest at the weekend, but I'm taking Miss Malabar with her dodgy knee so I doubt I'll get far.

I've half a mind to enter a BeeX team into the "Sleepless in the Saddle" 24 hour team endurance race, you know. But maybe next year.
Hah.
