Re: [RC] 100 mile rides--Why don't you?--Why I do - Lucky6mule
My friends have always known I'm a little 'off center'. It took some years
for me to come up with a 100 mile mule & now I'm nuts--I don't want to
stop. I make my ride schedule looking for 100's. I do them for the
feeling I get at the end. For the scenery. (Like glow bugs.) I ride low-tech
also; no HRM or GPS, use keg shoes &/or Ground Controls, limited
electrolytes. I often have a great pit party(crew) but not always. Before
my 1st 100, I remember being at a potluck while 100 riders were still out there
& I thought "that must be a bummer". On my 1st 100, I remember
thinking as I was still on that trail "this is so much better than sitting
around camp!"
