How and why do you all keep track of how many you've done?
Yeah, I'm not much into keeping track of these things either. I have a bike computer sitting around here somewhere, but it has never found its way onto my bike. I ride when the body tells me to ride, and I come home when I'm finished riding (or I need to be somewhere other than on the bike).
I have completed the Old Kentucky Home Tour Saturday century before and I've also completed a 100+ mile ride from Louisville to Bloomington, but that's about it.
Both of my centuries were completed without special training. I felt a sense of accomplishment when I finished OKHT for the first time(had only been riding 4 months). I took the 75-mile option this year, and sense that I'll ride many more metrics than centuries from here on out.
