Did my 50 (actually ended up being only 46 miles).
Very challenging - very hilly!
It is just about impossible to bike where I live in CT without experiencing hills.
I was dead tired at the end. The first 40 miles were very pleasurable - the last six were not. My legs were just tired out. I remember thinking, "If I see another #&**! hill, I am going to scream." And scream I did! But the scenery was beautiful, and the company was great too. No regrets at all.
I feel fine today, my legs aren't even sore. But my neck hurts from leaning over the handlebars. I see a nice massage in my near future - Ahh...
I am training for the Flattest Century in the East, which is in RI on September 9th. Anyone else doing it?
I am a very slow biker, but I really love it. The century will probably take me 10 hours. Yesterday's 50 miles took me 5 hours (7 hours including lunch and breaks). But I presume that the century won't be as hilly. YEA!
