    Harvest Century

    I am seriously considering doing the Harvest Century. My hubby is going to Montana to do some hunting with his brother the week of the ride. But I may go and do the ride myself or my daughter and her boyfriend may join me too.

    Anyway, if anyone else here in TE will be doing that ride would you like to meet? If I go I want to do the 75 mile course (maybe the 100 mile route . . . depends on how much riding I get in between then and now).

    I will know for sure the end of September.

    Tailwinds!

    Hi Sue,

    I may do the ride depending on my work schedule. I looked at the web site and didn't see a course description. Any idea what the course is like (flat, hilly, etc.)?

    Tempting! If my husband is not on call we might come down. It's Thanksgiving weekend in Canada, enabling us to drive down Saturday and back up on the Monday. But we'll have to wait and see.

    Here is a link to the description of the routes:
    http://www.harvestcentury.org/routes.html

    from the home page, click on event info; on that page, there is a box near the top that says: Routes Families Champoeg Park Training Driving Directions Gear. Click on "routes"

    Interesting that the shortest route (42 miles) is said to be the most difficult?

    Not sure if we'll be doing this ride or not. Too far away to tell. Will put it on the calendar and see what happens :-)

    Yea, I really want to do it too. But like I said I won't know for sure until mid or end September. I am so tempted to just sign up and go for it. But I'll wait.

    Hey the course is marked with the signature Harvest Century Jack-O-Henry’s ! How cool! And the leaves will definitely be in their glory . . . . all colorfully dressed out in their fall colors! Maybe the last beautiful ride before old man winter arrives! Aarggh!

    I'll most likely be there and riding the 100 mile course.
