Ride from my house to the start of the Udder Century, https://www.mchenrybicycleclub.org/MCBC%20Udder.htm , about 20 miles. Do the metric route. Ride back to my house. $30. Well supported ride.

Let me know.

I'm interested and all, but there's no way I'm coming all that way for a bike ride!

Not to derail your thread, now, I wonder how many people we could get to ride a century, all independent of one another, on that (or some other) day?

Tempting, but that's my daughter's birthday, and she's graduating. Probably bad form to skip town...

As long as we're inviting people to our local century rides, those of you who might find yourselves in Western Warshington State on May 4 might want to come to this one that starts and ends at the hotel I run. And I will be doing this one on a C&V bike; just don't know which one yet.

NOT flat, and not supported. (But I am buying a bunch of beer and snacks for finishers )

I'm doing one in Western Washington on the 4th also, just a tad south of that one.
