I'll be doing 750 in nine days later this month, but my record is currently 71 miles on a 30 lb modified MTB.
Not to hijack the thread, but OC, I have to know, how was 211 miles? At what point(s) did you get tired/second winds? What kind of fuel did you bring? I need advice for this sort of thing - endurance junkie

I did 204 miles once while training/vacationing in Colorado.. Riding back up to Colorado's National Monument park to our campground by moonlight was pretty cool!

130 miles...
I'm prepping to do the BMB (Boston-Montreal-Boston) next August and then the PBP (Paris-Brest-Paris) in August of 2007; each ride is 750 miles with a 90 hour time limit. Good stuff.

But I hasten to add that it was over a mountain, on logging road and "vehicle track."

120 miles by mistake, back when my old bike was new. We took a wrong turn and added 50 miles to our route that day.

54 miles, this past weekend, and I was BEAT! But until a couple of months ago, my longest was 36 miles, so I'm getting better.
