I've always dismissed 100s as just
too far, too hard, too out of reach.
When I said that to Becky Hart she told me 100's were easier and offered to crew for me.  I rode the Northshore 100 which was a really hard ride.  I rode the last 45 miles in the dark alone.  It was a great ride and in a lot of ways, it is easier.  The pace is slower and you have more stops to eat, drink, and fix what has gone wrong on the trail.  I know no one will believe me (I did not believe Becky) but it is true and there is only one way you can find out.  mb.............and no I don't mean Tevis..........that is a whole nother ball of wax...........
