Wow - we spent four or five summers in Sequim WA. FANTASTIC place to ride and GREAT weather. Almost never rains.
I am finally in TX - now maybe I can get ready.
Carbonfiberboy. Re: Pee stops - glad to hear your plumbing pipes aren't rusty and plugged up. In a hundred miler I'm looking at almost hourly pee stops. That makes riding in populated areas a real challenge.
I have decided to make this ride extra special by raising money for a Colorado Search & Rescue command center. Will ask all friends and relatives to donate by the mile and a bonus if I finish in less that 7 hours ride time. The bonus should motivate me to work harder. One of my grandsons will be riding with me for the first time. Maybe I can draft him all the way and make it in under seven.
Thanks to all for the training ideas. Will let y'all know how it works out.
