Horsey Hundred Day 2 - the next 70

[kelownagirl]

We did the 70miles averaging 17mph!

I'm proud to say that in 50 miles, NO ONE passed us!
I'm embarrassed to say that this was a tour and not a race, so it really didn't matter!

Congrats Mr. Silver! I had to laugh at that statement. I did pretty much the thing on our metric century "tour" today.

Mr. Silver it sounds like you guys had a fabulous weekend here in Kentucky, so glad for you guys. I missed joining in the fun but must admit I had a great time on my century today. You guys must have been burning up the pavement on the 70 today. I remember it as a tough ride glad you guys had a fun day on your bikes. I hope next year I can join the TE group for the HH100.

MotionBased is up....4,978 feet of climbing!

Today, half the roads were rough and potholed. Indysteel hit one pothole hard and I was surprised she didn't have a flat.

But overall, I was very surprised at the fabulous condition of the roads in Central Kentucky!

[Mr. Bloom]

Marcie, we missed you...maybe Old Kentucky Home!

sweet!! I could not have done 70 on Sunday, no way. The bf could have, but I had nothing left in the tank

nice ride Mr.Silver...

also, if I sent you my email, would you be willing to send me those elevation charts? Noone in my crew had a Garmin, and I'd bet they'd love to see what those hills look like on paper

I need to get a Garmin... thinking of an Edge 305 for the Canada trip... but the battery time concerns me and not sure if I'll have access to an outlet every night while camping in Canada, hmmmmmmm...

What fun the Horsey was this year! Great company, great scenery, great roads (minus a few). I really enjoyed myself!!!! Granted, I could barely move yesterday but still. But, boy, it's a hard ride. As Mr. Silver indicated, the rollers are constant. Mentally and physically, they sort of wear you out. It was fun to push myself though. I certainly felt stronger this year than last.

Thanks to the Silvers for providing such wonderful company, and I so enjoyed meeting Susan and Germaine. I hope we can all meet again next year!

I have one of those four-AA battery packs. With 2500 mAh batteries, I've put a full charge on my Forerunner 301 twice, and I'm pretty sure it would've been good for at least one more charge, maybe two.

Has anyone actually used a Solio? I've bought a couple of solar chargers and found them to be very disappointing, but the last one is probably four or five years old, and I know the technology is advancing all the time.
