It was much easier than I had feared...but no cake walk obviously.
Miles 60-70 were my rough parts....cramping both legs.
I'll post a ride report with pics soon!
As an occasional 100mile rider- I only do about 4 a year but one is offroad- Glad to see you did not have too many problems on the ride. My awkward point normally comes around 70 to 80 miles and I realise this so I slow a bit around the 65 mile mark and get some extra food inside me. Don't want to stop but for about 5 miles I just take the pace out and get a couple of cereal bars and some dried fruit inside me. Don't know if it is the taking the pace out a bit or the extra food- but it definitely helps. On the cramping side- I make certain that I start getting some isotonic drink inside me from about the 50 mile mark. This is easy enough with prepacked sachets of additive.
Glad to see you survived and whens the next one?
