When Andrew Chonoles tells his wife he’s going out for a bike ride in the morning, that means she might not see him until dinner. A weekend ride for him often exceeds 100 miles. Shortly after he bought his first serious bike in 1997, Mr. Chonoles, managing partner at law firm Kleinberg, Kaplan, Wolff & Cohen in New York, started doing 100-mile rides known as centuries, the cycling world’s version of running a marathon. In 2001, he participated in a six-day, 500-mile charity ride from Fairbanks to Anchorage, Alaska.
