Feat
Half Century Bike Ride
Complete 50 Miles in five Hours or less. This is not a fast pace, and it even should allow for a break, like, say, lunch. The point is to get out and go for a long ride. If you want to go faster, please do. Regardless, please be safe.

I'm SO stoked that this is on the list. i just bought my first bike and this is a fantastic goal to have by the end of summer.

If you don't have a bike you can get an all day rental for 1/2 price (19) from groupon.com today 7/15.

Yeahhhhhh!!! Finished the 50 miles in 4:52:33. Had to hightail it at the very end to make up for having to walk my bike through SouthStreet Seaports and Battery Park, thanks to the loads of people. Then added on another +9miles for good measure - or rather, to get home. Those last 9 miles were a killer.

If anybody would like to do a day swap--something like my bike for your hula hoop, or just arrange borrowing my bike--let me know. I'll be in NY Aug 12-31. My bike is a smallish, low-end road bike (you roughly measure by your inseam, mine is 30").

Left this to the very last minute, but we got it done! Route was roughly Prospect Park > Williamsburg > Astoria > Bronx Zoo > Van Cortlandt Park > Down the West Side > Back over the WB bridge > Brooklyn Waterfront > A few extra to drop our friend off at home and get back home ourselves. Total mileage: 55 miles.

did it on the reclining bike in 3 3/4 hours, while reading, being entertained by killercadoogan and other gym peeps, and talking on the phone. :-)

I got a bike rental from groupon but ended up not using it. Perhaps next weekend...
