Thanks Beth! The mileage (kilometerage??) really is a good one. I should have re-set my computadora to kilometers! I may be able to do a full 200k someday, but right now this is good. Time on bike, fatigue, accomplishments & enjoyment are all maximized (or minimized) to just the right point. Wish there was more of a rando scene here in SoCal could support some populaires. In fact, having a group dedicated to just that length would be a cool idea. "The Metrics" or "Les Metrics" I suppose.
