I'm confused about a few things. Is it his first century too, or does he do them already and he is trying to get you to do one? You imply you have to wait around for him, is he much slower that you? You were bored on the metric, was it because it was too easy or the route was uninteresting? Or were you waiting around for your friend? How did you do on the metric? How is your riding now compared to leading up to the metric?
