    Veronica - I like hills too! That's why I'm leaning towards mountain centuries. Around here they call them 'challenge centuries' and I believe the classification means a minimum of 8000 ft of climbing. Sounds like a blast to me!!

    Congratulations on your century ride.

    You obviously didn't *just* finish, but rather, did so in style. Woo

    Isn't it amazing what you've done in a year? I mean seriously, if I'd been at the bike shop where you and DH picked up the bikes and said, oh by the way, in a year you'll be riding 100+ miles. Would you have believed me?

    Well done and keep us posted on your new riding exploits.

    GLC, big congratulations! You did it!

    I also get that mental/physical dip at about the same time, but somewhere along the years I realized that my body would perk up at the 80 mile mark or so. That drove me to try a double metric just for the science experiment. It was great to see what my body willing to do if I persevered beyond that dip.
