Night 100k/century
Apr 11th, 2008, 9:59am
 
I'm in the process of hammering out a date for at least 1 date so far where we start a 100k or century on a Fri or Sat. early evening and finish up in the full dark.  The route proposed so far between the two of us trying to get this together beginds and ends in Grand Prairie.  I plan to do more of these in June and July as extra miles and "cool weather" miles, and to try and see if I truly have what it takes to do the longer randonnees and maybe, possibly a bid for 2009 raam if I am asked again to join team Rans.
 
Would any of y'all be up for it?

Planning tentatively on a May 10th century.  I'll be riding the Horse Country time trial and so I won't have done a lot of miles that day.  Seems like the best day to do it for me.
