D'Artagnan is on a distinguished road
You will be awesome, you will be surprised. Your Butt on the other hand is the thing to address. As far as bum comfort it is not how many miles you ride, it is how many hours you are in the saddle. Buy the best quality padded cycling short, don't scrimp. If you have been doing 50 miles I'm going to guess at about 80 miles is when you will start to notice things. But from the workouts you already do I'm sure the legs will be fine.Remember to hydrate, hydrate, I have had a problem with that in the past, not drinking enough. I came up with a plan, whenever I would take a drink I would say to my cycling friend, drink and we both would, and when she would drink she would do the same and we both drank more water that way, sometimes you just don't think to drink enough times.Have a great ride, be safe.ps: A good thing to mention to all cyclist. If you do not have uninsured motorist coverage on one of your automobiles get it. If you are run of the road or hit by a car and they don't stop or they do stop and don't have insurance, your uninsured motorist insurance coverage will cover you because it was a motor vehicle incident.
