I'm planning on doing something I've never done before - ride a series of centuries. What the heck - sounds like fun.

Anyone riding the following pay rides?

Liberty Hill Rip Roarin' Ride (Sept 25)

Waco Wild West (Oct 2)

Round Rock Outlaw 100 (Oct 9)

Ride for the Roses (the biggie - Oct 17)

Last week I rode the Marble Falls Hill Country Century Challange. This would've been a great ride except for some atrocious road conditons. There was a 12-mile stretch of freshly laid pea gravel that was especially nasty. This Sat we might have to contend with what's left of Tropical Storm Ivan. Might end up being a soggy century.
