at the end of the day the climate ride folks insisted 99.1 miles isn’t enough for my first century so after three glasses of wine I got back on the bike and finished it

@rebeccawatson How wobbly is the and of that red line when zoomed in?

@adhdeanasl look that driveway had a lot of potholes!!

@rebeccawatson that's a great accomplishment, congratulations! Great weather for it. And going back to pick up that last mile is very admirable, I know so many people who do a century, get to 99.8 and step off the bike and i'm like "RIDE AROUND THE BLOCK” hahaha.

@jasonmolenda I insisted I wasn’t going to but the wine and the gentle mocking got me! and when I came back I got a big round of applause, probably from many ppl who assumed I was the last person finishing the ride 😂

@LoneLocust 11 hours (including water stops and lunch) 😬

@rebeccawatson You rock! 🤩

I'm working on getting back in shape, and my last ride was a third that distance over (much) flatter terrain!

@TranshumanBlues thanks, you rock too!

@rebeccawatson Good job. That climb at 90-something miles must have been a doozy.

rebeccawatson,
@rebeccawatson@mstdn.social avatar

@PipGowenlock that’s the only place I stopped that wasn’t an official water stop because I physically could not do it and needed a 5-minute breather!

@rebeccawatson I would have been out long before then. I once stopped on a 60 mile journey to have a little cry behind a bus shelter.

@PipGowenlock I tried to quit at 60 but the Climate Ride staff rallied me! they said I looked completely empty and ready to die haha
