I've done segments of this ride before but not at one time.
I started out thinking I would head north do some hills and head home doing 25-30 miles. But the weather was nice and I felt good. A number of times I reached a intersection where I could of headed home or continued further east. Eventually I realized that I still had to ride home and there was only so many hours of daylight left. As I got close to home I realized that I was a few miles short of 62, so road some local streets to hit the number.
I see plenty of 50+ guys that have no problem doing 50+ miles with a lot of climbing and wonder if i'll ever get to that level. I assume they have been riding for years and don't have "day" jobs so they have the time
