Congratulations! Well done. I still hope to do my first century this year. (So far I've only made it to 64.5 miles.)

Congratulations on a great ride. The girls are right those stats are impressive.
Give yourself a great big pat on the back.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

Wow, good for you! High five yourself! I've still only managed the metric century, though I've done several of those. Still got the 100-mile ride as a goal, though. Always lots of inspiration here--like you!
