Most memorable moment on my bike: .... finishing my first 100k- the Dairyland Dare

Cough...cough....you picked the Dairyland Dare for your first 100K? Oh my, you are courageous or was that why it became memorable? Last year when the weather was nice? Or this year when they added heat to the challenge?

I stand in awe! After finishing the Door County Century this year, both DH and I decided that the 100 miles at DCC was much, much easier than the 100K at the Dairyland Dare.
