A couple of friends and I were chatting and wanted a "complete" list of centuries in the area.
I told one I would post here and ask the helpful folks on BF to help complete. I did not include rides for which there is no date set. If you have a sentence or two about the ride, that would help.
January
February
March
April
4/28 PSP Metric Century, Hershey, PA (It's a metric century, but is a really nice early season supported ride. Plus, the routes are divided into two separate loops; turning the ride into a full century would be easy to do. Registration is available online via Active.com, or mail-in from the downloadable registration form on the website.) Let Beth know if you are going. (below)
May
5/6 Five Boro Bike Tour (honorary mention 'cause it is huge)
5/12 Quad County Metric. From scenic Green Lane Park, Green Lane, PA, ride 21, 31, 45, 53, 68, or 76 miles at your own pace on low-traffic back roads. The 21-mile route avoids the longest climb and is suitable for casual riders. (Post #19 for details)
5/20* 5BBC Montauk Century (flat and very well supported, fun ride.)
5/20 Bloomin' Metric, up to 100k; East Norwalk Ct. Beeyutiful ride. Wish it didn't conflict with Montauk for the second consecutive year.
