At 20mph (pretty fast average speed) and no breaks, that will take you five hours. Claiming it isn't a long ride to you is just ridiculous. It's a weird way of bragging.

Edit: I see on your profile that one of your interests is "long distance cycling". So, basically "going light and go far". If 100 miles is not "long distance", what constitutes "long distance"? 406 miles in 24h?

No, that's not me. I consider things like that to be stunts and not really what one could do unless going superlight and have someone pick you up in a van.It's an average of 17 mph.
