Weekend Rides?

[goldfinch]

Did 64 miles, which is the longest ride I've done before. Had to stop for about 20 minutes and cool off at 48 miles, and went through six 21 oz. bottles of water. Other than my legs being toast, I'm surprised I feel so good.

Hey, congratulations on the metric century!

Wishing you a speedy recovery, Chatnoire! We (hubby, friend, and I) rode 100 today...our 2nd century of the season so far. It was much cooler out this morning, so I sort of had a feeling that we would shoot for 100 today. Yesterday, we rode 63 miles in extreme heat and humidity...which was utterly miserable. My Garmin indicated that it was 103 degrees at about 9:15am. In reality, it was probably more like 97 or 98 degrees (Garmin always seems a bit on the high side with temps)...but when it's that hot that early in the morning, it feels all the same to me...which is pretty awful. Glad to have gotten my 100-miler for July out of the way...now I don't have to think about one for at least a month.
