Fine.
My BIG, FAT, BLUBBER, LARD ass needs a tow rope tied to it and hauled by at least five large men to get it up any hill and preferably a cow prod to boot, as I look, smell and sound like a two-ton heifer.
There. I FAT-SMELL-SANDbagged and all in one sentence. Happy? :rolleyes::p
I don't know if I want to ride with smelly :eek: heifer's tomorrow, :p:D
Maybe I'll start at 7:00 and ride with Karen, Lily & maddmike.:)
Enough of the sand & fat bagging.
"CAN'T WE ALL JUST RIDE TOGETHER" Didn't someone once say something like that?
I'm not going.
Hey, you better... I told Kim you would be there

I'm just kidding. I'm going, I'm going...and I'm up at an unGodly hour. I think I'm the only one on here at present actually.

I haven't had any coffee yet. But I'll probably stop to get one. I'm leaving soon, which means 7-11 coffee. Or, I may wait until we go to MCD's.

It's 7:50 PM, and no ride report???? Get with the program!!!
OK, I'll start.
"My second century" by DScott
Miles: 102miles
ride time: 6hr. 23 min.
total time out: 7hrs 6min.
About 16mph avg.
I saw no one from BF.net I recognized.
I spent less time at rest stops.
This ride was hard, for some reason.
Fast pacelines are fun.
Descending Drum Cyn. shook at least one filling loose, I think.
But, the downhill run back to town with a tailwind is *very* fun.
I suck at climbing.
I'm very tired.
Beer is good.
Cheers to everyone who got a chance to do this ride!
