Century Club

I all of a sudden have a craving to do another Century bike ride lately.  I've been trying to get back into shape and hopefully do FAR better than how I performed during my first century bike ride.  I didn't take training completely seriously and because of it I suffered a great deal through the process.  I still completed but I feel I could have done much better given the right amount of training and my condition in health.  This was shortly after I was just recovering over a medical condition that messed with my body both stamina and weight-wise which as you can imagine in the world of cycling where we're lugging our fat-asses up a mountain, stamina and weight matter a lot.  Still though we were able to finish and I consider it one of my greater achievements in life sitting on a bike for 8 hours and riding for over 100 miles



And so because of that I want to do it all over again on a new century ride.  After scouring through the multiple types of century rides i have found one with ample time to train:
