Hey, I was out there, too, and in a fit of insanity opted for the full 100 (it's bad that the decision point came at about 45 miles -- I hadn't thought about it yet!). It was actually really nice weather, at least for August in GA. Sun didn't peek through until about 11:00 or so. Great support and a beautiful route -- lots of little rolling hills to keep things interesting.

My first organized ride, my first completed century! Pretty much rode it solo, did it in about 6.5 hours of saddle time, not bad considering I hadn't been on the bike in about three weeks, and I didn't exactly "train" for this. I was supposed to ride this with a buddy who just got diagnosed with leukemia 2 weeks ago, so he was on my mind quite a bit during the lonely period (miles 60-80) when I felt like I was the only one out there on the road...

Anyway, so now I'm hooked! Thinking about trying some other centuries this fall -- maybe Beautiful Backroads or Camp Twin Lakes Spin For Kids? We'll see if with a little actual training I can get a more respectable finishing time...
