    Does that include stops?!?! Either way, fantastic job.[/QUOTE]

    Nooooo....stops not included. We made 3 stops, each one about 8-12 minutes long. I would've finished a few minutes faster, but my husband dropped a chain 2 miles before the finish (at the bottom of a hill, of course). Since I talked him into doing the century to begin with (he was planning on doing the metric only), I had to wait. Then he started cramping up so I had to wait a little more...finishing the ride together was really cool though. He's dead tired, but I know he's proud of himself.

    Awesome! Haven't done a century yet, myself. Kudos to you! Way more important to finish with hubby then to cut your time by a few minutes...nice job.
