Met a goal today

I completed my first organized century today 102 miles, in 7 hours 21 minutes.

Life is good.

Only the recovery ride to do now. 50 or so will get you as bright as a button at work on Monday.

First 100 miler---- get the story ready for monday when they ask you-"What did you do over the weekend?

And on the 50--It may be metric or imperial but I reckon 50 yards will be long enough to say that you aren't going any further on that saddle today

Well done.
