My First Century!!

Way to go, Southernbelle!

[SouthernBelle]

Thanks all. Feet seem to be better this morning, at least as far as I can tell with soft squishy slippers. The scenery was pretty although we all got tired of corn fields. "Oh look, there's another %#*^ cornfield!"

I was wearing PI short attack shorts and riding on a WTB shespeed saddle. The bits did bother me a bit for the last 30 miles or so. But with my feet hurting so much, it made it hard to come up out of the saddle and give them a rest.

For those who are curious about the Garmin, here is my ride on motion based:

Meg took a pic of me early in the morning and as I staggerred in at the end. Maybe she'll post something tomorrow.

Here you are, darling! (Literally.)

Also, I heard TeamEstrogen's name being dropped in the locker room after the ride! Something about the clothing, and I told them about our forums.

/Double Post.

Real edit: SB also dropped an inexpensive water bottle, then ran over it. Hehe.

[SouthernBelle]

I did! Squashed it flat!

Thanks for the pic, Meg.

Hey! you look mahhhhvelous! Was that before or after?

congrats!!!!!

I'm nursing two chafe marks on the backs of my legs from the chamois seams. I knew I had one pair of shorts that chafed on longer rides (had the problem on day two of the Harmonie Hundred) I just didn't remember which pair it was. Another theory I have on no shorts problems with looong rides is you want to use newer shorts. These that chafed me are pretty worn out.

You should consider the Horsey for next year! I hear you about the cornfields...I ride past them all the time......but you don't say..."oh look! there's more &@#4 horses!" ....You say "Oh Look, more beautiful horses!" even after you've seen 200.

WOW! to ride a 100 miles is a true accomplishment! CONGRATS

[SouthernBelle]

That's me pulling into the lot at the very end. Note how few cars are left.

Silver, another KY ride I've noted is Misaligned Minds. The name alone makes it sound worthwhile.

Oopsey. Didn't read you wanted the before picture earlier.

Why do I see my mother?

[madscot13]

Congradulations! All this century talk makes me want to do one.

Also this is all so funny!

OK, now that I'm in the century club, let me give you some advice:

Take the box off your head!

That avatar is hilarious!

[SouthernBelle]

Even with the little eyeholes, her vision is terrible. & every stroke of the pedals goes, "bump-box, bump-box."
