Planning for the fall? Another interesting century along the NH & Maine coast
I noticed in another thread that there was talk of the Flattest Century in the East. This one actually claims to be flatter (I know, I know, that's hard to believe...)
The Granite State Wheelmen have an awesome century the weekend of September 24th & 25th. It runs along the New Hampshire & Maine coast, and it's interesting in that you can sign up for Saturday, Sunday, or both. (The same rides are offered both days.) The other thing that I really like about it is that there aren't mass start times. You can start the ride at anytime - I think after 7 in the morning - as long as you are done by 5. I wasn't able to ride this one last year, but I have done it a couple of times, and I think I'll ride it this year too.
If you're interested, the information page (and link to registration) can be found here.
MA/North Shore - An August Century
On August 27, 2005 North Shore Cyclists will sponsor their annual Blazing Saddles Century... I've done this one and it was pretty decent. Relatively flat, if memory serves. T-shirt was a crack-up :D
Rider limit = 500
