I did the Montauk Century a year ago May on my Pista. I was riding with some roadie friends in way better shape than I was. We were cranking for the first 70 miles and then I bonked hard. Finished it but the last 30 miles or so were hellish as it gets hilly out toward Montauk but man seeing and feeling the ocean as you get near the end was awesome. Prior to that my longest ride was the 5 Borough Bike Ride which was a few weeks before. I had too long a stem though and my shoulders were killing me at the end and I ditched the uncomfortable dragonfly seat I had too. I'd like to do the 65 mile version of the ride next time. That seems like a good distance for me.
