From: Currently living in Oakdale, CA about 20 mi. NE of Modesto in the hot central valley.

Bikes: Surly LHTD with a YAK trailer. I may have to ditch the trailer and go to panniers but I'll give it a try and see what happens.

As for century, I rode 70 before doing but was doing regular 45 to 55 before which gave the foundation. Let us know how you do. Ed
HO-CHEE-MAMA!! That's some pretty impressive riding there Ed. That 16.8 mph average is just great! Right now I'm doing 25's and feel really good when I get home. Early next month I have a week long vacation and sometime during that week I'm going to something substantially longer, maybe a 50 on flat land with a long rest at the halfway point.
