Wonderful weather for one of the top 3 century events. A great great ride that starts from a fantastic biking town.
Kudos to Big Mike for doing a double metric--the last 20 miles without water. And to his family for doing the metric route.
Kudos to Donna, Pat and Mary for doing the 100 miler, with the 3 attention getting climbs, after doing the Top Hat the day before.
And kudos to Frank and Verena when they shot past the 200 lb+ guy on the endless downhill on Pentz Road. Great to see, even as I was losing ground fast.
