Congrats, it was a bit breezy today in MI. I did a solo 60, over a bumpy, hilly course.

It was a gorgeous day, though, apart from the wind, which seems to blow in my face no matter which direction I ride!

My local bike club does an annual event and I had done the "Metric Century" last year and decided to go for the full 100 miles this time. I did the first half of the ride as part of a group from my Monday night ride and the second half I did solo. The others in the group were doing the Metric Century.

I averaged a 4:16 per mile rate over the entire somewhat hilly and breezy course.

100 miles is a long way on a bike.
