60 one day and 50 the next? You're ready.Originally Posted by Popoki_Nui
"As I like"?? LOL....more like "as I might be able to manage"!I still haven't done a true metric century; I'll be happy to ride with you when you come to the island, but go easy on this old bird! It'll be awhile until I get good enough to do 100km in one ride.
Cheers,
S.
2 more kilometers would have been 10 mins or less ride time depending on your speed. Could you have done that? Go for it and git'er done.

60 1 day, and 55 the next? 100 shouldn't be any problem for you - it sounds like all the necessary parts are handling it so far! I say Go For it! Besides - that whole "I rode an imperial century" makes you sound like a queen!!!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

Congratulations
I've done little less - 90km, but I'm happy all day long cause I can finally say... my muscles are alive - I can feel them 
Can anyone tell me how many miles is 1 kilometer, is it 0,62miles?"Life is not measured with the quantity of breaths you take, but with the quantity of moments that took your breath away..."

yes - that would be it! We also wander between Centigrade or Celsius? (darn I can't remember that :-D) and Farenheit for the temps - which do you use in your country?
