So is anyone doing the Bike Around the Bay this October. If you haven't heard of it (I believe it is in it's second year), it is a 2 day 150 mile ride around Galveston Bay. I'm considering it, but I'm wondering what kind of shape I need to be in to complete the 75 miles each day. The longest I've done so far is 40. I'm also looking at the MS150 next year.

****. Just got word that Ike has scratched this one off the calendar for the year. The ride is officially cancelled.

Yeah, I found out this week. I kind of assumed it would be, but they were looking into doing part of the route. I'm not happy obviously, but I totally understand. I was just really looking forward to my first multi day ride. Oh well, I'll just have to make sure I'm really prepared for the MS150.
