August 27—The Big Ride

Here’s some photo’s from the “big” ride I did last Saturday.  It was a great day.  For a full run down you can read my post on daily mile.

The ride went so well that I still can’t quite wrap my head around the fact that it was 100 miles! Looking forward to LOTOJA in a few weeks.  I have a 32 mile leg from Afton to Alpine.  I was hoping to up my speed in the next few weeks before the race, but my back is still pretty sore so I’m just kind of laying low and hoping for the best. 

Training for the century has been such a great experience.  I have needed something to really get me excited lately—inspire me to “get up and at it” and cycling has done that for me.  It has become my “happy pill” and I hope I can continue to find the time to do it because if mommy ain’t happy, ain’t no one happy.
