growery bike meet!
I've done 140 km in a day which is 86 miles.
Around 8 hours of biking total. That was in 2004 or 2005 though.
38.9 miles is pretty mean, thats maybe 2-3 miles less that a trip to my farm 4hours away( times vary)
Last night I biked through a whole bunch of neighborhoods all over town, went through a couple parks and fields. Busted both my peddles one going through those concrete things they put infront of parking areas so cars bump them... and the other when I went through gravel from my weight being thrown to one side... I think it was cracked already.
Probably 40-45 km or so in 2 trips. I went for an hour and a half doing around 25 km then went home briefly and went again for the weird journey. Could be up to 55 km... but I'm not sure.

If it's getting difficult to pedal at a steady pace, downshift. What exactly is confusing?
Sadly, I have no bike since a tweaker stole it  ... I really want to try this badass downhill challenge course that I found. Looks potentially lethal, but if you survive the ride it'd be completely

potentially lethal is k3y
when I was in elementary school I went down a 2 story hill with a jump at the end... I flipped over my handlebars and my bike hit me.
my neck hurt super bad for like over a month.

if you happen to live far from work though or have winters like I do in Canada it sucks.

so saturday night, im riding my bike home and i see some crack head on his shitty bike ghost riding a brand new sweet bike. he obviously had just stolen it a second ago because he was jetting from the main road and into little side streets (its a really small downtown). i ask how much and he gets all scared and tries to lose me. he ends up tossing the bike into the bushes, with a cut bike lock cable and a helmet.
so now, i've been going around to the LBS to find out if anyones reported it stolen (i've put up fliers too!) and checking craigslist. nothing!
