I know a 50k is a small ride to some of you century riders, but it will be my first “long ride” to date. So far I have been doing about 50 or 60 miles a week. Arielmoon: Those hills will be tough in horse country. Driving them has taught me that. That having been said, DH knows how much I love those huge horse farms and he said that next year we can set that as a goal ride alongwith the Bok Tower Century and tour of Sebring. This year our big goal is the MS150 in May. Best of luck to you and hope that you have a great ride!
