Road Cycling - First Metric Today!

What an awesome ride. I wasn't sure how I'd do since I've only ridden up to 55 miles on flat roads. This is fairly hilly. More than rolling, but not like riding in or near the mountains. I think I did very well too. 3 hrs 42 minutes at 16.9 MPH! I feel good too. A little worn in the legs, but no worse than my last 50 mile ride. Next stop 75.

whats a 'metric'?

It's a Hungarian road bike.:D

Metric century, I am assuming. 100 kilometers, which, if my high school math still works, is about 62.5 miles.

But that is only during daylight savings time. During standard times, it is 10 kilometers less or more, depending on which side of the International Date Line you are on.
:rolleyes:

Congrats on the metric century. 62.14 miles. Good job.

Great job sebring!! :D

Good stuff!! Congrats!

great job... I am so jealous...
My bike has been hiding from this hot weather we been having lately.
Soon they promiss a cool front .... I think it is october.
I am only getting up to 35-40 miles before I melt now adays.

I'm hoping the cool front hits Wichita Falls before HHH
this weekend.

Congrats on the Metric. the imperial isn't too far behind.

Not trying to steal this thread, but COOL FRONT. Please, say it's so. That would be awsome. Anything sub-100 degrees would be awsome.

They are talking thunderstorms and mid to upper 80's
(yes 80s) for weekend. I just hope the forcast holds.
Today is heading towards 105 and no matter what you
wear its not comfortable.
