Dan, here's a link to that ride/race I brought up after you did the Tour of Battenkill. It's on my bucket list.
Dirty Kanza 200 » World's Premiere Gravel Grinder
You're absolutely right about the faster and farther comment. Whenever I think I'm going to do a nice little leisurely ride I find myself trying to go faster and faster as the ride progresses.
Go for it! Your muscles are going to hate you while you are doing the race but the satisfaction afterwards, priceless. No need to win just give yourself a goal of finishing. Don't procrastinate, we are not getting any younger so you have to try it now (well 2015). Nothing better than a goal to make you stronger. Look at it as an investment in living healthier and longer. I would start with the 100 miler and progress from there.
If you are going for the 200 miler you better start training now cause it's one hell of a long ride. Don't remember doing that long a ride myself.
If you need support I'm there for you Doug
