Well then the answer is pretty much to ride as much as you can sustain week in week out (easier if you gradually build up the duration and pace of riding over the weeks). If you can manage to ride 4 or more days/week, that would really help.0

Depends how many days you intend to take - doing the 140 miles over 2 days should be achievable if you get the miles in between now and May - there is no time limit on your riding by May with the longer days, so you can take all day to do your ride.dean49 wrote:How much do i need to do to get me ready for may?
If however you were planning a 1 day epic............better hope for a stiff tailwind!0
