I only went 150 km. ride once, in Thailand. I'd been doing regular 20 km. rides in alternate mornings and sometimes 50 km. iin 2 hr. rides so thought I'd try the 150km. On my own though so no pals to chat to. Stop half-way for lunch. Took me 8 hours on the hilly route. I rode my hybrid bike. with 21 gears.

If you want to make yourself safer on public roads wear a light coloured jacket/outer shirt and helmet or hat. the most noticeable colours are White, Yellow and Light Orange.

They probably cut their losses - it was either the next GCN competitor or not.

Nice vid guys. I often think nutrition is over complicated. Done a 100 recently with 2 bottles of water and one nature valley bar taken at 83 miles, no problems! Best Regards :-)

@Brainjock Why not? Nothing to do with beginners or experience just stating it can be done without an over reliance on carbs etc. No offence intended 🚲

I'm good for around 75 miles each summer but then my legs just give in.

Dark bikes, black wheels, black clothes. Super stealthy... Stay safe and be seen!

I agree, however the point of this ride is that they're on closed roads 👍🙂
