My colleague Rich and I are up for a century tomorrow - we're training for the Dragon Ride, the thing is,  what constitutes a century in the UK today?

Are we up for the full 100 miles? or will a mere 62 miles (100 km) do?
We could do a 100 furlongs but it would be only 12 odd miles.

Hey ho we'll set off at 11 o'clock and see how far we get, my training needs are a lot less than Richards, he's signed up for numerous 24 hour mountain bike endurance races as part of the 69er Collective, the Dragon ride and not forgetting the the Etape du Tour and the Megavalanche in the same week!

By the way he needs some geeing up to succeed at all the rides he's committed to - if you sponsor him he'll have to finish every one and obviously MacMillan Cancer is a truly worthy cause.

Update

We made it, and it was an honest full Imperial one too.

Probably the hardest thing I've done on a bike, over six hours in the saddle is tough, it was a good job we stopped for a pint at half way.

Here's the map of our ride, just in case anyone else is daft enough to give it a go.
