    I'm about to attempt "Mental Toughness." I borrowed it & was just queing it up on the VCR when I noticed that it's a 9.5 difficultly level ()

    I'll be back in 90 minutes to let you all know how it goes...

    Ok, I'm convinced that "Mental Toughness" is not killing the next person I see in little khaki shorts and a polo shirt

    I wonder if it includes rest stops.

    hmmm ... for the full century ride effect, one could set up a "rest stop" table with mini pb&j sandwiches and banana halves & circus animal cookies & watered-down gatorade. And make your bathroom really scuzzy and forget to leave out the tp.

    Ha! Perfect. Also, need a LONG line in front of the scuzzy bathroom.

    Am now contemplating Aero Base V and how to cut it up because I ain't gonna do it all at once just yet.

    Andrea, that WAS pretty funny.

    Coach Troy and I need to have a little talk about music.

    I did that one IN ITS ENTIRETY one time last year. It's actually not that bad if you put on some good tunes of your own.

    Jo, there are several rest stops---3 minutes each but you can lengthen them.

    If the weather doesn't let up and give me safe pavement, I might have to gut that out again to prepare for the Wild Goose Chase.
