Susieq,
congrats on your ride! Sounds like you did well and enjoyed it, which is most important.
And you climbed above the clouds, that's fabulous.
When my sister got it into her head that she wanted to do the Cinderella, since her bike was not here (it lives in Norway) she got another bike: a Giant Sedona.What was she thinking?
When I saw it my jaw just dropped, when i tried to lift it to the roof rack I almost dropped. Even with slicks that was one heavy bike.
Nevertheless she completed 47 miles of the brutal-epic-Cinderella century.
In my mind she, and you have done your first century, it counts for one.
She's now got another bike, kinda a flat bar road bike, details of the shopping experience are somewhere here. (Trek stops here to pet the dog who has just joined me) anyway you will fly on your new bike

Congratulations!!!!!
As for bikes, we are a Trek family, so I am biased.

Næh, I didn't do 47. I did 42. SuzieQ has already got me beat by 4 miles.
Waytago Q! My new bike is a Trek 7.6, and compared to the Sedona it's like riding a jet-powered feather.
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.
