Nice! I have another 30 mile coming up next monthHey, nice bike, I used to ride like the wind, I road thousands of miles on a bike very similar, We road bikes that were 21-22lbs. My best bike was a Nishiki, a 21lb rocket A Chromolly frame 21 speed. I had a few over the years but that one was my baby, cost me a fortune in 73 at about $700 if I remember right. I still have the saddle bags I used while touring. I lived on my bikes, I could ride 100 miles easy 5-6 hrs. My legs were like motors that just ran while I sat on my seat and enjoyed the scenery. Its all in the breathing, get that right while in shape to ride and you can ride for ever.
I'm planning on doing a 220 mile trek next year, two day event, 110 each day. I'm psyched
