I'm in Miss visiting my folks, so no for me. I did get in 42 hotter than hell, windy, mostly flat miles today. Four 28 oz water bottles in less than 3 hours!

My next Saint Louis ride will be next weekend. I'm looking at the AYH century, plus a shorter ride on the other day of the weekend.

Greg,

Did you see our times on the Firecracker 100? We finished 22 and 23. We also finished ahead of that Big Shark group we worked with in the morning. Mike Banks was in that group, so you can scroll down and see his name. Trent was in that group too. They left after lunch 20-25 minutes before us, but they only finshed the 100 about 10 minutes before us, so we SMOKED them!

Not too bad for us doing about 50 miles mostly just the two of us.

Mike,
I saw the times, did you see the time for the guy who was the fastest? He was under 5 hours total time. If he stopped for lunch he did not clock in and out so he did not have any rest time that didn't count against him. Also it looked like he rode by himself. Another guy did it in 5 hours with a 42 minute lunch. Except for going through Vandalia that would be a good route for a 5 hour cnetury. Maybe do the morning route twice.
