Congrats again! You're right - the hardest part of riding 100 miles is mental. Of course, if your bike doesn't fit right, it'll hurt but for me, my first century got impossibly hard at the 85 mile mark.

By the way, TdPS is a pretty flat century. Another good one, and more scenic and thankfully less windy, is the Cool Breeze century in August. A bunch of us did it last year and it's always a good time. I have to be honest though, I always (twice now) finish Palm Springs feeling really good about myself & cycling.

I imagine you're starting to think about a double metric now...
