Thanks for the link Yellow I will check it out.Originally Posted by yellow
Trekhawk--SadieKate and I have at times discussed the whole randonneur/brevet approach to doing long distances on your own. SK knows way more about this than I do, so maybe she can chime in. But check out the FAQs on the Randonneurs USA page.
Any century on your own up there where you live would also include a whole lot of climbing. I'm pretty sure there is a brevet or two in the valley not too far from you. Again, I defer to SK.
And LadyJai...my gawd, woman, you ROCK! I agree with what Trek said:

Lady,
Have no IDEA where you rode....... but it does not matter!!! You did 200 *#!%#* MILES! In one day. On your bike. At this time of year. Amazing and inspiring! You go! Right now, where I am, with 16 in. of snow, and temps hovering around 0-10 F, biking any distance outside is a dream of warmer days to come............ and STILL, I wouldn't be riding any 200 miles. You rock!!
