My buddy have been riding on a costco bike for months, it's fun.
Start 20km and up it to 30,40,50,60 until you hit 100km.
Also, you should start riding from wherever you are at to Cypress mountain at least twice a week. RBC is fun, a lot of people, and very safe (compared to doing it yourself to whistler). Atmosphere is great and support is amazing. Last year was the WORSE yr to ride just due to constant down pour.
Please complain about it being expensive blah blah blah, well, so is listening to a CD versus a concert.
