Haha that would be great I read people saying that all the time one step step/pedal at a time but the idea is great

Yeah your right I've noticed that on a small scale now going from 8 miles now feel ok pushing up to 16, what are you riding mileages at the moment

Naw I would get bored, any thing upto about 40-50 miles (though I dont do many of those) is my limit really, happy upto that.

Nice one! I love the feeling when your mind switches off on long rides. We weren't talking about that were we?
I love it when my mind wanders while reading CycleChat.

Well done and keep it up! 
I will start cycling again at some point and I will be doing what you are doing - regular shortish rides and working my my way back up to longer ones.
You're pretty much a local - when I start organising forum rides again, come and join us on one!

Well done that rider. You'll find that as you keep going, you'll work just as hard, but the distance will go up and up until thirty miles just seems like an average ride out. When I started out, 4 1/2 miles seemed epic. 2 years later, a Sunday afternoon bimble finds me clocking up 40 miles or so. Goodness only knows how that came about!
