Back in May of this year (2009) I decided that I was going to do a so called "century ride" Which is a 100 mile bike ride. I thought that one, im not getting in younger, and two Im here in Hawaii I might as well do it. The total ride took 10hrs and 45mins. This is a fairly slow pace by many standards, but the only training I had was some 10-20 mile rides on the weekends that I would do around Waikiki. The ride was easy until I reached the 70 mile mark, at which point I thought I would have to find a ride home on a bus or with my thumb out. When I pushed through 80 miles it was all down hill. This was going through the middle part of the island.
