Note:
The earliest 100+ mile ride I've ever done. Previous earliest was 5/24 (2008), so a few days earlier. This was a really good ride until about the 80 mile mark. After that it became a struggle as because 1) probably shouldn't have tried this distance yet; 2) More importantly, I should have taken more food with me! Huge mistake there, and one I haven't made in a very very long time.
The map is not complete as my phone died around Wilson (44 miles) apparently. I manually created what is there beyond that, but started having problems so gave up at least for now.
And to complete the suffering? How about a pinch flat with about 2 miles to go! At least that break made me feel a bit stronger for that last stretch. Even though the last 30 miles were miserable, I'm still glad I did this as in hindsight it wasn't that bad, just slow when I was started to go into deficit. |
