Getting in on this late in the year, but I want in

Date of Ride: 05/01
Type of Ride: Organized: Tour De Cure (Long Beach Ship to shore
Actual Mileage: Approx: 100 miles
Total Time: 7:11
Climbed: ~3400 ft ?

Weather conditions: A little cool in the morning,no arm warmers necessary. Ocean breeze kept temp in the 70's and possibly low 80's. Wind kicked up pretty good around mile 70 going up Wesminster to Huntington beach, then turned around and faced us again on PCH heading back to long beach..

Synopsis of Ride: Don't have much to compare the ride to as this was my first century, but the weather was nice, I'm glad I couldn't find my Garmin the night before since It helped me enjoy the ride not fixating on my Avg MPH, etc. The course was badly marked, tiny road markers right before you had to make a drastic turn and not enough in the long stretches. Very confusing. Riders even were getting confused in the last turn heading into the finish. Almost hit a peacok in PV (that was a first) Glad it stopped.
