I signed up for it, but I'm having serious doubts. I've been trying to do a lot more hills this winter and spring, but I'm really worried about it. I did a relatively flat century ride on Saturday (Capital 2 Capital from Richmond to Williamsburg.) There was almost no hills except for the overpasses and the bridge over the river.

I expected to have an easy day of it, but I'm way more wasted than I expected to be. I was riding in a pretty fast group for the first 50 miles, and maybe I overextended myself.

For sure I will be in NO RUSH on the MoM. I'll be in the "8+ Hours" group for sure. I may even mentally plan on just walking the last three miles if I have to. No sense in just dreading it the whole way.

I'm signed up for this pretty hilly ride next weekend in Lynchburg:

If I fail at that I may just stay home for MoM...
