FROM THE HHH100 website -- THE ROUTES HAVE CHANGED:

Check out the new route for the 100 mile RIDE. For the first time, 100 mile riders will go through Sheppard Air Force Base and PYRO PETE and Hell’s Gate will move to downtown Electra!

I've always complained that I never have ridden through the base because I've always done the 100 mile route. I guess that will change. I notice this new route makes the course to go mostly uphill the first half and mostly downhill the second half. That will be fun.

Email Susan Robertson at susan@lbcwf.org and tell her you want to reserve a spot on the gym floor. It's like camping out, there's always a number of we rbenters there, and we have a blast.

What advice would you give for someone wanting to ride the 100 for the first time (other than just start practicing)...longest to date I believe is 26 (leisurely) miles with no problems and felt great afterward...for some reason I just want to do this ride.

I want to get with someone that can already do this kind of distance and see what it feels like. Maybe some laps at WRL or something just to see if I can go that far...I'm planning to start riding more after work other than just my commute, but we'll see how that goes with the family priorities...

Send me a PM or email or something if you want to get together Saturday morning and ride. More than likely I'll have to be back by noon so I will be starting early! WRL might be good so that we can ride together and start/finish whenever we are ready.

I've done near every one of them. Lots of riding, nothing is better than miles. Otherwise...

OHMYGAWD! My thighs are cramping!!! OH, my quads are cramping!!! AHHHHH, I am getting a cramp in my midsection. OHMG is that even possible? I think I may huuuuuurrrrllllll~!! (new little wife standing over me, "shall I call an ambulance?" NNNOOOOOOOOO!! AWWWW, make it stopppppppp! I'll never do another &$*&$ bike ride again as long as I live!!!!

Excerpts from "an evening at my home" after HHH#1 circa 1982. A mere 11 hours from beginning to end. Kegs of beer at every rest stop. Trained at night, doing laps around the local track, on my pawn shop 40# bike - good times...
