    I just did 33 miles after a 3 week break. It got a little ugly - it's amazing how quickly that happens. I'm highly unready for a century.

    I did 32 yesterday. I was fine but it helped that I did it in 2 parts. I got a flat halfway through and the patches Would. Not. SEAL. I used 2 and all the glue that was in the kit. (Park Tool.) Air kept finding new ways out. I've never seen that shit before.

    I had to walk it to an LBS and get a tube. I got 5. I'm done with patch kits.

    Please love yourself.

      I did a metric century today, in 3.5 hours. It was rather exhausting.

      Wussy. 😛

      Still, 100k is a good stretch.

      Please love yourself.

        I'm going to be out here for another 6 hours

        6+ hours for 100 miles? I thought we were talking about a bike ride, not walking! 😉
