I wanted to see if it’s possible to write 100 kilometers on my bike in under three hours so we got the bike ready and did our preparation always pump your tires up get your ride nutrition ready you’ll definitely need it we would essentially have to average 33.3 kilometers per hour for the entirety of this course smashed out the first third of this ride averaging a whopping 37 kilometers an hour and even had time to stop for a cheeky drink the next third was going to be a whole lot tougher to keep that speed up though as we hit the hill if you’ve ridden your bike uphill you know that you don’t go very fast this brought our average speed down to 31.8 so we needed a quick nutrition Pit Stop caffeine is an obvious performance enhancer than we need some quick carbs in as well as assaults to stop further cramping final third was an absolute disaster we hit just about every traffic light I had a headwind for 35 kilometers which makes you move extremely slow when you’re by yourself and to top it all off I was cramping the whole time and in extreme pain these aren’t really valid excuses I’m just not fit enough so we definitely got some work to do missing out by 26 minutes

  1. Every stop counts to real time riding. Be true to yourself and train a bit harder. With a couple of month of structured training you will be there The material is already at its best so no need to change anything here. Work on you aero position and ride with more solid / constant power. With you weight you will probably need about 220W/3h to stay on target.

  2. im not trying to go this hard but i kinda wanna do something stupid… i wanna ride a bike to a friends house… not so bad right hes 3 states away LOL sooo ummm i needed some kinda refrence point too see if 100 miles a day was doable on a bike seems like it if i lose weight atleast

  3. Did it twice last year 2:37:05 and 2:44:11. I wouldn't even consider myself an average rider. The key? Do it in a large race with plenty other people around, to take advantage of slipstream on a track without much elevation! 😀
    First time I did 100km on my own back in 2022 it took me 3:38:28 as well. ^^

  4. If you really did pump your tyres up to 100+ psi, you will go faster with a lower pressure that is just ridiculously high.

  5. When a guy that is shredded says “not fit enough” it makes you wonder if you made a mistake signing up for one a month out from getting your first bike as an adult lol. Fuck it. Just gonna send it

  6. this is extremely impressive for a jacked cyclist. I'm also a bit jacked but only weighs 165 pounds and the best I can do is 3 hours and 40 minutes.

  7. Ba mancatiasi gura ta de biciclist, ba , am incercat sa merg 50 km traseu și mi-a luat 5 ore.Din cauza ta era să leșin pe drum de 3 ori.

  8. It's okay to recognize your limits when trying a new challenge. Past few times I went cycling, I averaged 15-20km per ride, but sticking to a good 15km for the month. My trick is just doing it in small increments, so +1-2km everytime in order to build up tolerance much like training for exhaustion in a gym.
