Normaly i commute to work at least 4 days a week / 26 miles round trip. I also take 30-40 mile rides on saturdays. I did not ride today (tuesday), and since my first century is this saturday I figured it might be a good idea to just not ride until then. Would it actually be a bad thing to take such a long break before doing a much longer ride than normal? I did my normal commute yesturday.

thanks for any help,

mike
