Re: Sat ride

7 a.m., that's cold just thinking about it!! But I plan to be there and to go the distance!!

Century GPS/Cues

For the few brave souls, here's the 100 -- print your own sheets. Stores at 21, 46, 86, and 95. Insulated bottles if you've got 'em. See you there.

Icycle 100

Re: Century GPS/Cues

Gotta love the name...The Icycle 100!!

Re: Century GPS/Cues

I'm In.

Re: Century GPS/Cues

See ya tomorrow for the, um, "Icycle 100"? Couldn't we call it the "Heat Wave 100", or the "Winter Warmer 100" or something more inviting?

Re: Sat ride

Excited to meet this crew!? You guys are hardcore! I'm training for an IM in May and my plan doesn't call for centuries yet, but will soon! But...what the heck...Looks like I won't have a problem finding brave souls to go 4-6 hrs! I'll be there!! Don't know if I'm equipped for the weather, but we'll see!?

Re: Sat ride

That was beyond epic. It was legendary.

Re: Sat ride

I'll second that!

Re: Sat ride

Yep. Thanks to all and our ride leader especially, was a wild ride!

Re: Sat ride

"Legedary" desribes it well! A "cool" ride with so many firsts that I lost count! To name a few: COLDEST!-20 degrees at the start. Best wintery backdrop! Most challenging road conditions! I've never had to walk/skate my bike so many times nor for such distances!
A most memorable trip not soon to be forgotten!
Thanks to all my riding companions for another great one. I will be sending copies of pics soon. Lots of good ones. Sorry the goat chasing pic didn't come out! lol.
See you on the road.

Re: Sat ride

Let's not forget:
-the multiple lost cyclists, later found
-the cars stuck in ditches on the roads we were trying to ride on
-the 2 small heard of deer leaping across the road in front of us
-the 2 separate cattle stampedes that we inadvertently caused
-the wet cow dung that ended up on some of us
-the on-road 12mph crapping-as-they-go goats escort in front of us
-the multiple dog packs that gave chase -- not to mention the uncountable solo chases
-climbing the icy hill
-virtually everyone taking Janet up on her offer of Motrin at lunch
-the "ladies" bathroom at BoJacks
-the fresh chitlin juice splattering onto Paul's bike and causing all of the ladies that work at BoJacks to run away gagging

I'm sure there was more. Good times.
