To ride or not to ride

[Reesha]

Thanks redrhodie! I decided not to go. I went to work today and I was lightheaded and exhausted. Before heading home for the day, I cancelled the hotel reservation. The drive up there seems daunting right now, so that is a good indicator I should stay put, rest and control what I eat for a few days more. I am bummed, because that ride (Wright Stuff Century) is beautiful and challenging. However, I'd rather not experience again the discomfort I felt this week...

There's always the Ride the Rivers Century in St. Louis in October (the best time of year here!). I will ride it with you if you come down

Sounds tempting! But riding a century and driving 6 hours back right after... yikes! Bike Chick might be doing it -- see the North Central section in the forum...

My only reservation is how expensive it is. I think it's $75 bucks to register. I'd rather ride 100 miles on my own and donate $75 bucks toward my fundraising goal!
