What's a Century?

Good morning everyone!
Yesterday, I learned many things...I learned that team work while you ride for a full day gives you fun ~ pace ~ rhythm ~ and at the end, you realize that after a century, you can still walk!
WOW... I heard ... Congrats " PISTON" you completed your first CENTURY... <>
I'm telling you all day...Century ~Century~century.... But I didn't realize what they were talking about? To be honest, I didn't want to look too green...Everybody seemed to know what Jeff was talking about?

Well--now I know! A century = 100 miles, 160Km and the expert says... It's the equivalent in energy spent to running a marathon. WOW, to me, a marathon seems so out of reach. I suddenly realize that my conditioning is still pretty good... Second thought, what a great way to beat your limits for every one you love...waiting for you...not to far away now...Home. What a great way to raise money for people who have to run a marathon every day to survive. Just hope that they have my team on their own with them to spend the day easily to keep the pace and the rhythm.

Se ya soon

Dominic " PISTON" Lacasse
