In January, I decided to try for a P12, which is twelve 100k rides, one a month for a year.
I completed my second today, and it was much easier than the freezing one I did in January.
I went to Hillsboro OR and did the snoozeville 100k permanent on the tandem with my husband. The weather was miraculously clement.
Never rained, light wind, temps between 48 and 58...
I saw too many roadkill animals for my liking, but other than that, all was good. We almost "timed out" when we decided to sit down for lunch at a sleepy restaurant. We sat for almost 30 minutes before we got our drinks... Realized we were running out of time for the next control and cancelled our order... ate our peanut butter sandwiches instead!!
after we made it to the next control (with 6 minutes to spare!!) we had a tailwind, and ended up finishing in less than 6 hours.
I have 10 more to go...
