Re: How far have you ridden?

That's pretty hard-core guys. I don't think my backside could possibly stand 60 miles of riding in one day--even if were on a flat, smooth road! The furthest distance I've ridden all at once on nothing but singletrack is right around 30 miles. I'm using the term "singletrack" a little loosley here. The trail I rode that day is a National Scenic Trail in the Oregon Cascades. None of the recreation maps of the area indicate that it's rideable; and the sign at the trailhead, although not prohibiting bikes, does warn would-be riders that it is not suitable for MTB. I just had to try, though. Needless to say, it was a gruelling ride over ridiculously rocky, steep terrain. Ironically, the thing that made such a long (for me) ride tolerable was that I was forced to be on my feet as much if not more than on the saddle.
