390km in 26 hours (with a wee sandy bivvy for a couple of hours). As some have already pointed out, it's not about speed, just pumping out a rhythm. I was taking some pretty leisurely stops for snacks, photos, chats etc.

200 on a singlespeed was my biggest tally for 24hours on a crazy adventure in France

135 on a mtb on last years bb200 hurt more though!

Doing the coast to coast to coast next year (Whitby to Whitehaven return) which is 300 in sub 24. That should be interesting and the Wales c2c spotiv will be close to 190m.

Quite liking distance when I can find the time!!

254 miles Trafalgar Square to the Arc de Triomphe in 22 hours, on road. 104 miles on the Kielder 100 (ahem) off road. Looking forward to some long days in the saddle doing the 1,150km from Alicante to Santiago de Compostela on the Camino de Santiago (actually a mash-up of 4 of the CdS variants) next spring! :grin:
