Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Mighty rider's club...solo century times?

I am expecting my 180's to be here today. After installation I will go out and do a solo century (most likely on saturday).

What kind of times do you guys get? How many of you under 5 hours?

5 hours solo? A rider like you should set your sights on a sub 4.

5 hours would be insanely slow for a rider of your caliber. With your 40 MPH confirmed speed, we would expect your to finish in 2.5 hours.
