...on Monday.
100 miles, ~7k climbing. Yay. Weather will probably not cooperate either. Whoopee...
I haven't been riding as much as last year prior to my first century (I was doing 35 miles a day (commuting) with some 60-85 mile rides on the weekend). Now I'm lucky if I get 20 miles (pulling a trailer with my 2 year old in it...feels like a 40 mile ride...) 4 times a week with maybe a 35 mile solo ride on every other weekend.
Also doing this particular ride unsupported (it's an organized ride...I'm just poor...and cheap.) ....so it should be a great way to kill myself.
Ride report to follow if I'm not dead.
FYI: Century #2 is 12 days after #1...oh boy...This is all in the name of doing a 204 mile ride in under 12 hours in mid-July, btw.
