:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
I'm in hard-core training mode for an organized century ride on Oct. 1st: 100 miles in one day! It's an annual benefit ride for the Santa Cruz AIDS Project, going along some lovely back country roads in the Santa Cruz mountains, San Benito and Monterey counties. :thumbsup: A great event, for a great cause. I like it.

Here's this week's riding schedule, so far:
Monday: 23 miles
Tuesday: 55 miles
Wednesday: 21 miles
Today: 53 miles


I seriously rock!! :pats self on back: :D I just HAD to share, cuz I'm so damn proud of myself. I haven't done a full century since 2000, back when I was in training for the CA AIDS Ride. :thumbsup: It's been a while since I've ridden this much in one week....

Yup, I'm six years older, but I've STILL got it, baby! B-)

The road goes on forever ya know. Happy trails to you. I'd post how many miles I've ridden since Monday but it would pale in comparison to your efforts.
