Yes, Retired as of last September.
I needed to get my biking act together for the second fast CC tour. No excuses, I knew what was up.
I trained in North Central FL for 12 weeks before the tour and it was just good enough but by no means excessive.
This link will give you some idea if you have time to look at it.

Oh, I forgot. I do mostly rails to trails because of safety. Wisconsin has a number of them and so do OH, IL and FL. I do most days 50 miles and 100 as time permits.
