Thanks everyone, I will post a report under the Sept 9 rides. I really had fun today. I did this a little faster than planned but rode with some faster people here and there.
That is a coincidence about the 100 posts, i hadn't noticed.
and surlygirl congrats to DH that is a great time, and yes there was quite a head wind at the end and more climbing than I had been told, but I had ridden some parts of the route before so I knew there would be some climbing!

Congratulations and great time! My first century ended up being 102 miles, but it was closer to 7 hours. You're a speed demon. And I remember the same aches.

Awesome!!
That is a great accomplishment to you! Savor it, and enjoy the afterglow. You had a great day weather wise and it sounds like your ride was a blast, the way it should be.
Are you hooked? Ready to consider another one?
