Interested if anyone out there knows how many of us did the 102 miles last Sunday. I'm pretty new to cycling (began 4 months ago) and had not ridden more than a 54 mi before this. From a cooler climate, so when the temps got near 100 on the course and the San Antonio high that day was 98 with the wind 15 gusting to mid 20's I was taxed to say the least. My son is a veteran rider and could have done it in about 6- 6:30 but hung with his 60 year dad and we did took 8 hour 10 min to do it. Seemed as if when we split from the 60 mile people there was no one out there until we passed a few. Realize it was a poor time but I really don't care as I was just happy to survive. Saw lots of riders at the last 2 rest/aid stations who were overheated and waiting to get brought back to the finish with the sag wagon. What a day!
