    i've ridden around the block to tack on a bit too! if i set a ride goal that day.... and i fall short when i get home... i head down the street or around the block! i did that a LOT last year when i was working so hard to stay in the top 100 on bikejournal last year!

    normally when people just say "century" they mean 100 miles..

    however if they say metric century.. then it's... 63 i believe (100 kilometer...)

    ok.. just did converter... it's 62.13712 miles for a metric

    bikerchick is talking about the 100 miles centuries!

    How far do yo ride a day average? that is when you can ride and not dodging rain and snow and what not.

    Susie... oh man, warm and dry thoughts coming your way... last year Solvang was absolutely beautiful... hope maybe you'll all get a 6 hour window of no rain!

    Brandi... I typically ride a miniumum of 30-40 miles anytime I get on the bike... but sometimes during the summer I'll just go for an hour and get 15/16/17 miles in... just a quick spin...

    I have learned what kind of rider I am... I am not a natural climber and I am not a sprinter... but what I do well is maintain a steady pace for a long time... so I'm a decent distance rider...
    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".
