WOW! Theoretically that is not even possible for a bloke your age, you obviously have a well exercised heart muscle. I know it is different for everyone and I have a relatively high maxHR for my age, but a full 10BPM below that. I maxed out at 180 in spin class last Thursday, had spots in the eyes, felt sick and all that

Fizz that is a big mileage and good to see you making plans to get out and do some events.

My training has been spin twice a week and out at weekends where possible on flattish runs around Shropshire with the CRAPI wheelers (Chris Ron Alan Paul Ian ) I'm going quite well I think. When the clocks change I'll be able to get out on the bike after work on my 30 mile hill loop. now that summer bikes are out at the weekends the going gets hilly.

Here is last weekends ride...
