Hey CaliGirl- Good job on your double Metric. Was that the first one for you? How did it go?
My century ride yesterday turned out to be a metric century- broken spoke at mile 68!Missed the best part of the ride!
Lucky you- crosstraining will make your road bike skills even stronger! Wish I could do MTB, not on your life! Too much chance of broken bones (already have osteopena)!
But, that's okay- I'll just read about the rest of you!

oh sure....
wish the broken bones on us! i'm sticking with the easier dirt roads for now! less of a chance to get hurt! i would be sooooooooooo devastated if i couldn't work out or couldn't ride! 
i mean... i took up road riding cuz i hurt my toe and couldn't do aeeobics for a few days.. but i NEVER gave up on the weights! i hobbled around to do them!
this was my second double metric.... we did the double metric of the grand tour a couple months ago... that was a GORGEOUS ride.... i think if i have to pick.. i liked the grand tour DM better only cuz there was more coastal riding! simply gorgeous! but this one has more rest stops.. i always like the rest stops!
they are both long days when you factor in the drive to get there and the drive to get home..... but the scenery and support make them worth it!
