My good friend, Libbie, encouraged me to write about the ride on my blog. How can this be? How can the 7 Hills of Kirkland Century relate to remodeling? As I thought about it, it didn’t take long for me to realize that they are very similar. Like a remodel, I was anxious for it to start, and by mile 85 was very ready for it to be over. The more prepared you are, for both, the better your experience will be. Choosing the right team, surrounding yourself with great people, and sharing a common goal are key aspects to a successful century and a successful remodel.
Now that it’s been several days later, I can say that was a fun ride and I look forward to doing it again. We were quite lucky - no flats, no road rashes, no crashes - just sore butts and good times. We were also very luck to have met two great guys who rode most of the way with us. They really helped us step up the pace!
Like a remodel, there were moments in the century where I thought, “What am I doing?” But, after the metric break away, I was committed to seeing it thru - there was no going back. Once the walls are torn down, the remodel is under way and no turning back!
Whether you’re riding a century, or doing a remodel, know there are times when you’re really going to have to dig deep to get thru. The better prepared you are going into the century or remodel, the more enjoyable your experience will be. When it’s all over, congratulate yourself on your commitment and success!
