Woah!
I was all set to start a new thread before I realized you've already gone and done it for me! Cool.
Well I did my century yesterday as well. Beautiful day for it, too. Got out of the house about 7:10 AM, meaning to meet TimmyT at Bridgehampton. We basically followed roads I've ridden before, stopped to check out a few things along the way. It was a beautiful day. Stopped at a picnic table on a beach on the Sound for lunch; I had brought some sandwiches that were small but (I thought) pretty good... and Tim had brought mimosas. Really, I'm not making this up. Also an apple and an orange and some sugared pecans, all very tasty.
We arrived at my house well after dark, weighted down with two pizzas, soda, and lots of beer.
My total, 115 miles for the day; on my Lambert three speed again. Tim's total, 72 miles (so he's in for a metric anyway) on a Kona Jake.
