I hope to work up to some 25-30 mile rides in the coming months...any tips?
I've only been riding a couple months and 2 months ago I was in the exact same place as you. For me it was really just about pushing a couple more miles each time. I'd do 10 for 2 days, then 11, then 12 etc. Once I hit 15 I stayed there for about 2 1/2 weeks and really worked on getting my avg speed up. Then I started adding 5 miles to my rides. so went to 20, 25, 30, 35.
