With the right friends I think it could be a fun thing.

With the wrong ones it would be terrible.

http://www.fatcyclist.com/2012/04/03/start-getting-ready-for-the-2012-100-miles-of-nowhere/

Registration for this year's is next week sometime. Anybody else wanna try? I'm debating rollers again (for the mental toughness aspect) or doing repeats on a 2 mile hill that gains almost 700 feet. So, I guess option two would be 25 times up/down the hill for 16,500 ft of elevation gain. I'll let you guys vote. Should I do the rollers again or the hill repeats?

Thankfully, I recently loaned my trainer to a guy at work :-)

I'm all for being outside so hill repeats is a winner! 25 times borders some monotony in the scenery hu? I guess that's no worse than the rollers tho hu?

I think monotony/boredom is a requirement.
