rheidis73 (Heidi) and I will be attempting our first 100 mile ride on Saturday, 8-26!
Yep. We will be attempting our first 100 mile ride.
Neither of us have met in person, but we have chatted on the phone, and have IM'ed through TE!
We will be in Whichita Fallas, TX riding the Hotter Than Hell bike rally. It's a HUGE rally, and is very challenging, as it's sure to be 100F+ on Saturday!

I have mapped out a ride plan though, detailing our miles, breaks, pace, and how long we can stop for rest stops. I typically would NOT do this, but since we have to make it to Hell's Gate/60 miles by 12:30 PM, a plan had to be made.
We have body glide, new shorts, cycling jerseys, camelbak's, gloves, sunblock, gel shots, and positive attitudes.
Hopefully,we are ready.
