Awesome, it is so much fun. From my experience:
– Consider having enough water and food.
– Choose a tour that crosses its own path in the second half. So you can decide to go on or take the shortcut home.
– Consider clothes because weather can be quite different after a few hours.
– Know about some useful places on your tour like a super market.
– Have fun 🤩

Don’t stop eating. Longest Gravel event I have done is a hair over 200km and it’s the eating that is the biggest factor.

Really pointless and stupid thing to admit.. but I can’t go no handed on my gravel or road bike. I can go no handed indefinitely on my mountain bikes.. just road and gravel are so nervous and twitchy I’m grabbing the bar in seconds lol

First of all: kudos to you! My advice: Take the food you want to take with you and double it! Nothing more exhausting than bonking on >100 km tours…
