Story for Finally 100 miler! It wasn't easy. Tough hilly and windy ride

Furthest and highest elevation gain I have ever been. It was a tough 103 miles (166 km) ride. As we set off for a punisher 100 miles, we didn't have it all our way. Within first half I hit with couple of punctures. Quite scary dropping downhill with a wobbly front wheel. It took 3 tubes to fix the wheel. Thanks a ton to Mark and Adam for lending me their only tube and helping me on the road side. I'm very grateful to you both. We lost quite a bit of time. As Adam and Mark are constrained with time, we head back steadily fighting against the 13 mph wind. Shame they couldn't make the 3 digit but they should be chuffed for the effort they put in today.
