A fellow cyclist just finished the Heavenly 100 and he said at the start, it was shoulder to shoulder, elbow to elbow aggressive riders who thought they were in the Tour de France. He and his buddy fell back with the other riders and enjoyed it much more. He rode beside a 75 yr old lady who was really enjoying her century. That's how I want to enjoy it when I do my first one.
