i'll second the... you can do a century even if you are slow! i'm am NOT a fast rider! and i've done 10 centuries this year so far! i pace myself (or, if you believe bc's brother... i sandbag! lol! )

double century.... ya.... probably not! lol! but we'll let richard think i'm going to... then he'll stop harping! i do leave the option open though.... but it was bad enough doing the double metric on my own last sunday.... add 75 more miles to that? hmmmmmmm not right now! i need either a new seat (for some reason mine that had been wonderful for a year... had been bothering me at and since cool breeze??????) or new tights (different chamois)... i'm wearing shorts and leg warmers saturday and see of that makes a difference... i hate leg warmers for longer rides cuz they fall down and i have to keep pulling them up and tucking them under my shorts! oh... and if i were faster it would help to not be on the bike so many hours! lol!
