Can I do the Tour De Foothills?
Hello guys! I am thinking of doing the Tour De Foothills century next month, but I am not sure if I will be able to finish it. I do not really care about time I just want to finish it. I did the metric last year and I was VERY slow because it was my first ride with actual climbing. I want to know if I can do the full century now.
This a ride I did a little while ago. I pushed really hard on it, but I don't know if it is good enough to be able to do 100 miles and 7,500ft climbing.

So I'm not sure how good I am and if I will be able to finish. I just don't wanna get a DNF.
Thanks!!

There is only one way to find out if you can do it.
If you don't try it, for sure you won't get a DNF.
The decision is yours.
