First century EVER today, 100.8 miles in 8 hours and 30 minutes (including stops). Fairly lofty goals for our first 100 mile ride, since our longest rides EVER were around 35 miles. 'Training' consisted of plenty of commuting and that is it. Just us two, no support, and lots AND LOTS of hills. Extremely happy with the time we made, and what we accomplished. My Miyata did GREAT, the granny upfront got plenty of work on the hillclimbs, and the ride was SMOOTH. Only issue I had was trying to shift into the granny halfway up a hill, and lost the change inboard. Quick fix and I was on my way to catch up. My quads/calves are sore, but the rest of me feels good. Let's see if I will be able to walk tomorrow. Just a few pics!
The bird is for the sign and the corresponding hill. Not the bike
