And though I have done intermittent fasting, and even some longer multi-day fasts over the past few years, I don't count calories of what I eat, so I can't really confirm it's calorie restrictive on a regular basis, at least to the extent of it affecting the aging process.

PFULMTL, what you say makes sense. The minimum I know is how to patch a flat tire, which requires a patch and some levers. I didn't see that in her kit, which is what surprised me. Getting a puncture is not uncommon, yet she doesn't seem to have the gear for that. The bike doesn't have a dynamo or a battery-powered light. Is it reasonable to assume that one will only ride during the day? I'd say that is pretty risky.

I love her so much I also really love biking as well. Especially super long bike rides I'd love a biking partner! I wish that I can be just like her just bike all over the world and enjoy life more!

I think she only does that during the races, not all the time. A few days / weeks a year is not going to hurt you in the long run.

I’ve wanted to do something like this for awhile, not for any competition or anything though. However, I’ve always been worried about the monetary and safety aspect. I wonder if she carries some mace or a firearm of some sort. Has anyone else rode long distances like her? If so, what is your advice for attempting a ride like this?

Preston Owens don't go alone, especially if you're a noobie.
