First metric century

[MattHB]

63.81miles in 4hrs 15m with 1800ft of climbs.

Felt very good, nice sunny day too and not too cold. Bloody may fly hatch all along the stour was a bit messy! Little buggers either going in my mouth or my helmet!!

Chuffed.. Feel like I'm getting somewhere now.

Cheers! I seem comfy at average 15. My speed is coming up slowly.

Well done! Fair bit of climbing too. I look forward to getting up to that kind of distance myself, but it may take a while....

It was quite hilly, made slightly more so by me taking a wrong turn, thinking, 'wow this is a nice bit of down hill', to find I had to climb the other side to get back on route!!
