Yeah, but so is commuting 5k to work every morning, and that is mostly useless.
I think I see 'just ride your bike' too much when people are asking for actual detail and it is kind of bothering me.
gillies-
You seem to fail to recognise the quote and as far as "how do I train for x" questions go, they are worse than my now generic answer because everyone has different time free, everyone has different aims for the same race, everyone responds differently to different amounts and types of training so the answer is really "do what works for you" and to find that out you need to try a whole lot of stuff.
Curious now though.
I might enter it in 2018 after spending 6 months doing ONLY commuting miles and see how I go.
hippy
Yeah, that's riding your bike. :P
One of the best/easiest options for seeing how you cope going long is to start riding audax.
