Completed my Quad Century over the Labor Day Weekend. First day was 110 miles with a tailwind and relatively flat. Second day was a head wind with about 2500 feet of climbing. Everyone was dead. The temperatures dropped to 37 degrees at night, brrrr. The third day was around 113 miles because of a detour. Tons of climbing, although I didn't hear the details about the amount of elevation. The fourth day, I dragged and was about to sag around mile 60. There was so much climbing, my legs were dead. I did finish the official route but I was too tired to ride the additional mile to the Mackinaw Bridge and the 5 miles over the bridge. I know I could not do the climb or deal with the wind. So next year I'll ride one of the shorter routes. The ride is called DALMAC and there are four varations. Each year there are 3 crossings of the bridge, each limited to 400 riders.
I think I'm behind Chris L. but now I am going to rest.
