Does anyone have any other advice on riding a century? It shouldn't be THAT bad. I mean, it's like doing four 25-mile rides...right?
Exactly. Just break it up like that. When you start the day, you're not riding 100 miles; you're riding 25. Then another. And so on. All the double centuries and long brevets I have done I approach like this. I'm not riding 600k; I'm riding to the next controle.
