Where there any hills? What was the total accumulated elevation gain.
I just finished my first century, 105.87 miles in 7:16. It included 7000 feet of climbing.
Most of the ride was me solo or riding abreast with someone. The only paceline was the one where a bunch of people hopped on my wheel without telling me, sheesh.

I did a 4:15 first 100 in a double century, in a large group paceline. The second hundred was a killer though. Total time was 10:30 for the double Seattle to Portland. Not bad, and I'll never get anywhere close to that again.
