I left late Sunday morning because rained until 10:30. Got a flat in Wilmette, had to relube my chain in highland park because of the rain earlier.
The last 20 miles were a slog, but was relieved to see the downtown metro in the distance.
Milwaukee is surprisingly hilly.

Congrats! This was a goal of mine when I was living in Chicago and commuting to MKE for work occasionally. Looks like a beautiful ride!

A solo century is hard. Congrats!
With friends it’s shared enjoyable pain!

Strong work 💪 looks like a beautiful ride from your pics! I’ve only done metric centuries at this point, but it’s absolutely wild to me that you could ride over 150km and only have 1474ft of elevation.
Diverge E5? Damn fine bike. I’ve got an orange one like another poster. I’ll do my first century on mine next month. I did my first half century today on my Tarmac – Diverge is a bit more comfy.
