Yea, pretty confident you didn't burn 70cal/mi.
Congrats on your century. I worked the final SAG station on a century ride this last August. Most people looked pretty drained at that last stop. I was pretty sure one guy was gonna die on the way in (he actually stopped and took a ride a mile or two down the road, I'm glad he did -- I think he just didn't want a ride from us but wanted one from his wife).
And I don't think our century was as hard. It didn't have that much climbing.
