She did it, Gina's First 100 Miler
Well on her single that is, she has 4 on the tandem but wanted a single century. 101 miles with Eyemage, El Monarcha and Me. 15.7 average 6:25 ride time. Nice flat ride including SART to Green river, PCH to Seal Beach and SGRT to Liberty park.

15.8 according to GarminConnect

Happy Gina after the ride.

Bah, I see what you did there, stealing my thunder.
Congrats to Gina, I have a new respect for people who can sit still for 100 miles. That's not a half bad route you did there, although I noticed you skipped that little hill to the green river parking lot, you chickens.
You didn't run into any SGRT closures? I rode down last Sunday and it was blocked at 183rd street.
Let me know if you do it again, I wouldn't mind riding a 100 miler that didn't require a 2 hour drive to the start. And flat too.

Dude at 38 second mark in first video has the same helmet as ME! I have not seen anyone else wearing one. It is really a MTB helmet and I want to get a nice Giro or something similar eventually but I like my helmet for its crazy graphics.
