Yes I will be riding the century. I think this is my 20th time doing this one.

I think the first time I did the ride was in 1986. I've done the century five or six times since wish the route was changed up a little more. It is a great ride though.

I will be doing the 100 miles. This will be my fifth time for this one. Definately a great ride and then homemade pies afterward. :D

It sounds like it could be a great scenic ride, but does it get so crowded you are worried about bumping into your neighbor? I would guess over a long distance it is not a problem, but curious what veteran riders think of it.

It has not been an issue. It is an open start and people string out pretty well. :)

This is a great ride there is a lot of times that you are riding and you wonder if you are still going the right way. You may go five miles with out seeing anyone else on the ride. The ride is marked very good. There is a lot of people there but not to many it is a ride worth the cost. Since it is in Door County you do not have a lot of areas were you are crossing busy roads which is very nice.

So I plan on attending. People are right about a poorly designed website. I could not seem to register online.
