I'm just a novice. Lessons learned on my first century.

1. EAT.
2. EAT.
3. Drink water.
4. Carry extra tubes. Emphasis on multiple.
5. Know how to change a flat...before the flat happens.
6. Accept help from the experienced riders.
7. EAT. Today is not the day to hit on the diet. According to Garmin I burned 8,500 cals. that day. Go ahead have that snickers and a MTN Dew. at the bottom of the hill.
