Congratulations! For your first century you picked one of the best ones. I am little biased as it was our club that put it on.
My wife and I marked part of the route, and helped out at one of the watering holes. If you stopped at the water stop by the Holley School ( the stop after the last big hill coming out of town, mile 68) I probably saw you. If you tried one of our world famous Banana Boats, it was probably handed to you by my wife.
I really hope you enjoyed (I'm not sure enjoyed is quite the right word to use when talking about centuries) the ride and had a good time. Thanks for participating.
Does this look familiar?
