Task · part of 6(A). Option A, Road Biking

6(A)(2). A hundred miles across six rides

Optional May not apply Often forgotten

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 6: road, or trail and mixed surface?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

Two rides of 10 miles, two of 15 and two of 25, avoiding main highways, with a written report listing the dates, the routes travelled and interesting things seen.

Notes and warnings

Note. Six rides, not one hundred-mile total: two of 10 miles, two of 15 and two of 25. Main highways are to be avoided. Write each one up as you go. The report wants dates, routes and what you saw, and that is much harder to reconstruct later.
