Well, I finally knocked out a real, Englishmotherfucker, Century.
I did the first 61 miles solo then met up with my buddy Maxx for the last 40ish. This ride was pretty tough for me but cool to know that I can
The toughest things were really the weather and just mentally pedaling for 61 miles alone. It started off 30F and got up to a whopping 44F, grey almost all day with only an hour or so of sunshine. I’ve done one or two other metric centuries solo and many 50ish milers, but all with better scenery and weather. Charlotte winter on a dark day is 1/7. Once I meet up with Maxx it was more fun getting to shoot the shit and slowing the pace a little (he rides an 82 Schwinn).
I also think I ate too much last night (thanks weed) and not enough today but it was alright. Some chocolate at mile 45 was dope.
All in all, I’m pleased with the effort.
