200k+ ride into the burbs to visit friends and bum glasses of water from them. Time elapsed does not include time spent at friend's houses, watching childspawn being precocious and stuff.

Felt great through 96 miles, but eating 37 miles of headwind at the end was pretty crushing.

Food eaten ==
full stack of pancakes + bacon, coffee, oj
1 cup of Sustained Energy mixed with Hammergel with water in 500 ml bottle (first four hours)
1 Clif Bar (hour 5)
1 banana (hour 5)
1 cheese dog and can of orange soda (hour 6)
1 Italian sandwich on bulkie roll + bag of chips + chocolate milk (hour 7)
2 packets of Gu (hour 8)
1 chocolate milk (hour 9)
8 tablets of endurolytes
3 liters of water (roughly)

oh yeah, and that 42 mph top speed? Leland Hill in Sutton, y'all. Good times.
