My longest ride was 300 miles in two days. We did 100 miles the first day then camped. Got up the next day and rode for 200 miles and took about 15 hours. We covered easy trails to rock crawling down a steep boulder canyon. That is a long ride. But it was a ton of fun!!!! I would do it again anytime. Generally our clubs ride 40-60 miles in a day. You just have to dress for the weather. I know a lot of people don't think about the temperature changes between town and the mountains.

 

A long ride depends on terrain and weather. I've been on 80 - 100 mile day rides and never gotten tired except for a tired a$$, and I've been on rides that were only 2 miles long and totaly got my a$$ kicked. I was out deer hunting and the temp. was about -15 and the wind and snow were blowing like a SOB. I decided to take a short cut across asome plowed fields. What a mistake. It took about 2 hours to get across this bumpy frozen wasteland. It's hard to even try and put into words, but that was the longest ride of my life. The worst thing was, about half way I could see my house and I was just getting my a$$ kicked.

 

when your butt falls asleep and you run out of beer it is long enough!
