Good Job
That is a great accomplishment! And, because of the rain you have a great story for your first metric century. IT's always those crazy things like rain or running over a squirrel or the day you saw a bald eagle that makes you remember things more vividly!

Oh, that's great! Thanks for the mini ride report. Sorry about the rain, but as someone else said, it makes for a good story afterwards.
It's nice that you had someone to ride with. I did my first metric by myself, though I did find someone to ride with after starting--at about mile 7, another woman and I found that we were about matched in pace and we did the whole ride together. But no one at home understood--then. Since then, I've done a little indoctrination process so never again did I or will I arrive home to "ho-hum, so you rode your bike all day, big deal."
On the other hand, you couldn't find better congrats and encouragement than we get at these TE forums!
