If I were to dedicate myself to training, is this a reasonable goal? I. I am very active and exercise regularly.
Easily do-able.
Go out and ride 10 miles tomorrow, should take less then 1 hour. Each week add on 20% more mileage. At the end of your training period you'll be at 30 miles. At that point 40 miles during an event should be a piece of cake. Good Luck.
