Livestrong Challenge century ride

[Kenneth]

I rode my S40 in the Livestrong challenge century ride in Austin Tx, this last Sunday ( the 21st). 6 hours 40 minutes total time and 6 hrs 10 minutes ride time. I was pleased with the ride; it was the fastest I've rode a century before. The first 60 miles I maintained a 17.5 mph average but i couldn't keep up the pace and ended at about a 16 mph average over all.

Congratulations! Nice build with bar end shifters too! Must be lightweight.
The more you ride the stronger you will get!

Great pictures Kenneth.
I see you have the disc brake up and rim brake back. I have that setup too.
I really hate to use brakes, but it sure is nice to have the disc brake when you need it!
I can see you smiling while you are riding, and that is the goal. Happiness, Joy, while riding you Cruzbike fast!

Nice action pictures! Strangly enough, there are not many pictures of S40/S30 with a rider in action.

And you could have been even faster with less buggier shorts and that water bottle on the rear seat stays mounted behind the seat, away from the wind instead!
