No scenery, except the shoulder and wheel of the guy in front of you. No nothing but hammers hammering, doing a crit on a 10-mile loop.
This whole thread sounds like it belongs in a "racing" forum.
But that's just my opinion.
I've done a century that was 50 laps of the 2 mile loop around my neighbourhood because I couldn't be away from the house for very long with a fiancee on the mend from a recent surgery.
Call me crazy, but sometimes it's not about
where I go... it's just about spending time on my bike.
