That sounds like me -- I use a triple for the steep climbs. I can push an "A"
pace on flats and short climbs, but not for 200 miles (or even 100 for that
matter). My personal best for a century is 5:30 (5:10 on the bike) and there is
no way I could have maintained anything near that pace for another 100 miles. I
figure 15-16 mph on the bike for the double. With a paceline, maybe 17-18, but
I'm more interested in finishing with something to spare, than riding like a
time-trial.

Sounds like there are at least three of us -- that's great! A three man
paceline will make a huge difference.

I'd be interested but I am a true "B' rider at this distance, not a B+. I
just don't have the leg strength to drive the hills at that distance.
Longest I've ridden is 112 miles.

Jim,

I plan to do the double a sub-A pace.
