Furthest you've ridden fixed is...

My fixed record now stands at 1401km in 115 hours.

London -> Edinburgh -> London 1400km Audax.

Day 1: 8:30am start, Cheshunt to Thorne (via Wragby). Shower and 3 hours sleep.
Day 2: 6:15am start, Thorne to Eskdalemuir. 1.5 hours sleep.
Day 3: 6:00am start, Eskdalemuir to Dalkeith (shower) and back down to Alston in hideous weather. 3 hour stop at Eskdalemuir on way back, 30 min doze in church porch in Brampton, got in to Alston at about 6am. 3 hour sleep in a bed in Alston.
Day 4: 10:00am start, Alston to Thorne. Shower, 3 hours sleep.
Day 5: 6:00am start, Thorne to Cheshunt. 3:30am finish.

Chapeau Greenbank :) I see Jo Wood rode fixed aswell 72" gear.

Did a French guy ride fixed aswell? Thiery Miton I think.

23 metres thus far and I'm pretty impressed with my improvement from 3 metres as of January this year.

Fuck, thats truly amazing. It just goes to show that all the training is worth it.

Hippy truly is win.

65 miles. About 59700 crank rotations.

I rode around Ealing today.. I've passed the kilometre mark. I was so happy I cried tears of joy. Oh glory !

Just got home from a 3 day ride from NYC to Boston with a group of messengers from NY.

First day was around 120 miles from Harlem to Hartford, Connecticut.
Second day was around 80 miles to Providence, Rhode Island (damn the hills in between)
Day three was a speedy 50 miles into Boston

All in all a lot of fun.

Who'd you go with?

rode to brighton yesterday. not the furthest i've ridden fixed but pretty pleased i managed it solo.
btw, is it ok to be self-congratulatory on this thread?

65 miles. About 59700 crank rotations.

More maths fail.

That's hardcore doing 65 miles on a 22" gear.

(The gear size in inches is the equivalent diameter of an ordinary wheel, not the circumference. So one revolution of the cranks on a 67" gear moves you PI*67" or 210.5" along the road.)

59700 / pi =~ 19,000 revolutions

23 metres thus far and I'm pretty impressed with my improvement from 3 metres as of January this year.

You're just trying to spin your failure at LEL positively.

hehe you said "spin" hehehe

I wanna do some audax.

Although Audax is non-competitive someone still has to win them...

First home in LEL was a German in about 65 hours. He (and a bunch of Italians) knocked off the first 714km to Dalkeith in 24 hours.

Remember:

Sportive = Pretend you're racing.
Audax = Pretend you're not.

furthest fixed = ~200km

home to Dunwich.

probly about the same as me

Furthest fixed on Sunday.

102 miles
31100 and 2/3rds crank revolutions

14.4mph rolling average, 28.5mph max speed (145-ish rpm) 115bpm average heart rate, 183bpm max HR.

Drugs: one latte, one Americano and one cappuccino
Fuel: 3 Frusli bars, one banana, one ham roll with mustard, one piece of chocolate tiffin, one piece of toasted plum-bread, 0.75l Adam's Ale.

Conclusion: sore botty, hot knees! big smile!

0.75l Adam's Ale.

not adnams?

180 miles in 4 days (Highland Odyessy). 67 miles in 5 hours, teastops included is the furtherst I've done in one go. Normally squeeze a 21 mile route in an hour dead once a week and try and get a 36 mile route (approx. 2 hours) in at the weekend.

not adnams?

Unfortunately not, in this instance.

Definitely a weaker brew. 0% by volume, distinctly lacking in body and taste, but cheap at half the price!

80 miles, with 75 gear inches, a track bike and a 15 mile hour head wind the entire route, not fun.

Rather shocked to see the distances people have been going.

I've only got a MTB, which I always ride with 44:14. Probably have only done 70miles max,
I wish my crankset went higher, I can't really get any faster than 24mph (I think) on a flat, and going down hill is annoying because you mainly have to just roll down, peddling doesn't make much difference unless you really do some bursts of speedy rpm.

I really need more teeth.

I'll get a fixed one day.

35 miles :-) I know it's pathetic, but one like this

From the kitchen to the front room on a Fuji Track Pro. No, didn't have any puncture despite the flint and grit in the corridor.

ps. and 3 miles with a single bed mattress held over my head with one arm.
