    That is beyond accomplishment,you definitely earned your bragging rights.
    I know I would have walked a 16 percenter.

    It might be helpful to some future rider if you made some suggestions to the organizers about the route markings and rest stop location.
    Phil, the guy who organized and marked my yearly ride, is really good at marking the route. He also takes the opportunity to spray encouraging words and the occasional "chicks dig phil"

    Zen, we did make suggestions to the organizers on the markings. Like Sue said, it was handed off to others this year and I'm hoping they make the necessary changes for next year.

    There was one encouraging phrase on the hills "you can do it!". They needed a few more
