When I lived in Ohio, there were a crapload of bike paths everywhere because the old railroad network that was dismantled in the 1970's was simply paved over. You could literally bike from Cincinnati to Cleveland (~250 miles), all on bike path, if you wanted to.

I lived right next to one of these paths, and some of my coworkers decided to be part of an MS 150 bike ride (150 miles in two days). So I trained for this by working up to doing 70-80 miles on Saturdays. Of course, it's not the 75 miles the first day that kills you, but the 75 miles the next day... I didn't train for that part. :-/ I think I did a total of 105 miles for that ride.

The most I did do in a day was just over 80. Wanted to do a century (100 miles in a day) before moving, but never got to.
