This will be my first century ride as well, though I've done a few 90+ mile charity rides. It'll be nice to finally get to that magic 100 mark. Plus, I have a close uncle who is a cancer survivor so this ride will definitely have a lot more personal meaning.

The folks at LIVESTRONG Challenge recently posted details about the Philly ride. Unfortunately, it doesn't go through Center City at all - the whole ride will be in and around Montgomery County. They've got detailed maps of the course and updated info at:

Also, for anyone who is fundraising, you can get some free promotional materials (stickers, magnets, 3-ring binders) that you can include/handout when making solitications to potential donors. It took about a week or so to get them, but they're really neat. Check it out at:

See ya in Philly!
