Thank You Patrick!
I'm not against racing, nor against tome clocks.
I like brevets and enjoy the people. I, too, have enjoyed a long lunch.
It's not racing in the very strictest sense, I am fully aware. But why not
just climb on the bike and knock out the mileage?
I'm always interested in the exten

Having a time limit does not turn a brevet into a race. You have to
finish within a given time (13.5 hours for a 200km brevet) and must
maintain a certain average speed (around 9.3 mph, if I recall correctly)

I just did a brevet in Gainesville. 200k, nothing too nuts. Big fun.
It IS a free country so to each his/her own. Riding all night is Ok if
that's one choice.
But not in south of France unless that's where you ride all the time.

In the research I've been looking at, one of the points left unclear to me
is how much is too much. In certain of the studies, the subjects are elite
road cyclist, ultra-runners, or elite nordic ski racers. In others, the
subjects are referred to as "long-time endurance exercisers" which is, to
me,
Many of my non bicycler friends think that riding 25 miles is Xtreme.
It's a strange thing that as a country we have increasing rates of obesity and
great fascination with

Thanks for posting that, Michael.
There's indeed a growing body of evidence that strongly suggests or links
high endurance activities to a number of cardiac/cardiovascular pathologies
with atrial fibrillation being the most prevalent pathology. Interesting
there are some studies which suggest the
And that's no knock on Jan. Just the extreme ethos.
It's the same thinking that gave us competitive birding. Taking an elegant
