I posted a few months ago that I will be riding the Death Valley Century. It is here already!!! Saturday.

This is my very first century and I am terrified. I know there is really nothing to be that scared of, I just want to finish. Everyone says I can do it, but I am not so sure I can make the time cut off. There is only 10 hours to do this in and I am a pretty slow rider.

Any words of wisdom? Encouragement?

Oh, on another note, I am having a terrible tightness in my right levator scapula. I am thinking I may need a shorter stem. Any experience with this?
