This looks like a fun ride. Have you done it before?
My girlfriend and I ran a 5:45:00 on our first century a few weeks ago, looking for our next ride.

I didnt see any numbers on the website, any idea how many people participate?

Last year there were around 700 riders for all the distances, with around 200 doing the century.

I may do this ride, they changed the century route and it's much nicer than the previous one. The club that puts it on does a great job providing support to riders, so it should make for a nice day.

At 20 bucks that is totally a doable ride- wonder if I can pass for a kid and get it down to 10 :)

You could always do the 13 mile family ride 8 times and that would only cost you $10:innocent::lol:

I'm not, my allergies are too bad at the moment. Have a great ride, that's a nice area.

I and 2 or 3 others from Newport should be there if the weather holds. Hope to be on the road by 8:30.

Sorry your allergies acted up, Shifty.
