120 miles -- takes me six weeks to ride that far. Don't think I could do 120 miles if it was all downhill. So to me you are no poser when you get on the bike in the middle of the night to knock out more than a century. Or even ten miles.
I ride a grand total of four miles daily -- to work, Monday-Friday. Impresses the heck out of my colleagues and friends, mostly because they think it takes a daredevil to bike even a mile in downtown Washington, D.C. And I feel accomplished because its four miles a day more than I was doing. And I have not yet been run over (but was nearly right-hooked this morning).
So give yourself a break, because it sounds like you are knocking out more miles on your bikes than 95% of Americans could even imagine attempting to do, let alone be able to do. And as others have urged: ride for fun. Enjoy the journey, however long.
