I'm doing a century (as I do every year) in September. Big deal. Except THIS year, my new girlfriend is doing one the next day. Being that I kind of encouraged her, I feel compelled to be her pace-boy.
The first one will be a steady 18 mph century with a buddy. With GF, it will be a 14 mph ride. Not a problem speedwise, but I have no experience at two centuries in a row.
Should I do anything special to prepare, like do two long rides consecutively every week, instead of one? Will that prepare my buns for the abuse in six weeks? Looking forward to the challenge. But not the PAIN!.
