You did a little over a metric century, so in technical terms, I would say it counts.
The death ride, which I have done support on for a friend of mine, made me want to shoot myself just watching it. **** that noise right in the proverbial rectum.
I have done a few and each one has been different. Choose one that has less hills and you should be fine. When i did the NYC Century it took me some time but i was absolutely fine after it. It didint have any major climbing in it, i was tired but not whooped. Previously I had only rode around 60 miles maximum so it was a big step up for me.
With a little training you'll be fine

btw - I stay away from the Gu's and all that stuff though I have been experimenting with Nuuns. Regular Gatorade(mixed half and half w/ water) and snickers work well, and they can be found anywhere.

Nice. I like to do this little route but starting from my friends house, that adds about 25+ miles and a few thousand feet of climbing. Steep sections average 12-15% grades.this is the Mack Daddy of California century+ rides

Stop being a wimp, I will try if you go.
Werd. About 4500ft worth of vertical. Fun ride for sure.
If not doing the Death Ride makes me a wimp, then color me the sandiest vagina on RM.
Just for a sense of the sick and wrong, when is it this year?
