Did it!...First 100 Miler :-)

[WellyWonkey]

Feeling quite chuffed with myself today. Did the Manchester 100 miler yesterday, in just over 7 hours, my average speed was 17 mph which I was happy with considering I'm fairly new to this game (that's with a puncture and a few fuelling stops as well). Little bit sore today today but nothing like I expected. I've lost 2 and half stone since I got my bike in November last year so it's been quite a productive year so far. I'll have to sign up for my next outing now :-)

p.s. I'm now sick of the taste of jelly babies

Well done. Haribo jelly babies, less sweet than bassetts

Fantastic WW!

 

[MattE72]

Well done. I'm still steeling myself for a 100km ride never mind 100 miles!

 

[Fubar]

Well done - good average speed too.

 

[Rickshaw Phil]

Very well done! Excellent average speed. Much faster than me - exits stage left pretending to sulk.

well done
I'm suppose to do my 1st 100 miler this coming Sunday, and I'm starting to get nervous.

Well done. A great achievement

Well done. Haribo jelly babies, less sweet than bassetts

But with haribo ones you dont end up looking like you've been sniffing powder for 100 miles.

Congrats on the ride by the way

Well it will now be one a month now then???

 

[Joshua Plumtree]

Well done. Great effort! But one bit of advice. If you've averaged 17mph, then say to people: Well, of course, rolling time was 5hrs 50ish. Ignore the times you stopped! Then it sounds even more impressive!
