First Century

Took 2 years to get there, but finally completed my first organized century yesterday (6/8). 102 miles, 6.23 hours total riding time, 15.9 mph avg.

The ride starts in Lebanon Oregon, sponsored by Santiam Spokes bikes club. The Strawberry Century. A friend and I rode together the entire route. This was the first century for both of us.

Here's the profile of the route.

The wind really beat us up, steady wind between 8 - 12 mph with some gust over 15 mph. At least the weather started cool in the mid-50's before climbing to 82F.
