It rarely happens. The most i can manage is about 1hr 40.
I see a lot of people doing 2 hours plus and just can't get my head around how you can do that. They claim it's low intensity / 'base' riding but I can't think of anything worse. If i'm gonna use that bastard thing might as well make it intense and hopefully profitable.

It sucks but can be useful. Also, it's not necessarily base. Adam Topham has won the last 8000 years of BBAR and his training seems to consist of 1-5hr turbo sessions at tempo and sweetspot intensity, which if you've ever tried it, must suck massive balls to ride at for 5hrs. I can't focus that long at that intensity but that's why he wins BBAR and I do not. Oh that and I don't actually try to win BBAR, that might also have something to do with it :)

You and @hippy have just described my worst nightmare. I ended up trying to do a 2 hour z2 on the rollers once - after reading my training diary coach told me never to bother again. After 70 mins I was on the verge of losing my mind and I had to stop, even varying cadence and doing some (one foot etc) cadence drills didn't help. I'd rather be out in the rain/dark/snow than try that again.
