0 to 80 ... in 9 months

This is not the acceleration speed of my car but probably a sign that I have lost it ... I'm going to cycle 81 miles in a race.  You see last year I decided I would do some running races.  Sadly I injured my knee whilst skiing and was told by the physio that the knee was not to be run on for 12 weeks.  This meant that the running races were out.  So to make up for it I have decided that I should enter the Caledonian Etape in May 2013.

This is a 81mile race in Scotland and I've probably cycled a max distance of about 40 miles in the past.  So I have 9 months to get ready.  So this weekend it's two laps of the park - which I am told is about 20miles.  This is terrifying.
