Made my first "100 km ride" last Monday! Kinda proud, so I wanna share ๐Ÿ˜Š. 112 km, 5.5 hours total, cumulative elevation gain 3800 m.

Nah man, you haven't ridden 100km.

You've ridden 100km on a MTB, which makes it so much more impressive!

Thanks :-D That's the only one I got, and it's a good one.

I love MTBs, their versatility is unmatching, but damn are they slow! I used to go 18km/h average on my old Merida, now I have Rose Count Solo 2 and I get some astounding 24km/h ๐Ÿ˜„

This one's my "first" bike since my teen years, more than a quarter of a century agoโ€ฆ I'm quite happy with it, but yes, it needs some stamina!
