Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Sadly, it's gone. They built it, it existed for about half a year, and then it disappeared. I think they were trying to go too far with it when they started rating rides based on all sorts of odd criteria. They had some centuries coming up as difficult as a 1200K.

However, if you want lists of centuries and other longer rides, you can find some of that info in my Links page: https://www.machka.net/links.htm

The Team RAAM would definitely be do-able. I have several friends who have done it.
