Hi all,

If anyone is looking for a ride this Saturday (May 15), the Potomac Pedalers are having a "spring century" ride in Howard and Carroll Counties. It's an unofficial century in that there's no SAG. I've never ridden in that area before and I feel the need to explore new frontiers, so I'm planning to do the 50 miler.

This website has cue sheets, directions to ride start, etc.

Ride distances are 101, 76 and 51 miles.

Here is the description from the PPTC newsletter.

CC/B/BB/A * 50-100 * MD * 7:30-8 AM * Fulton P&R
PPTC Maryland Spring Century. Show and Go. The route will cover Howard and Carroll Counties. Expect roads with low traffic and rolling to hilly terrain. From the ride start, the course will head into Lisbon. Once at the Lisbon Park & Ride (rest stop) - optional loops are available before returning to Fulton. PPTC will provide some refreshments at the Lisbon Park & Ride as well as have both 700 X 23 tubes and floor pumps on hand. Food establishments near the ride start, the rest stop and along the route will be noted on the cue sheets. No SAG, no painted markers. Ride Leaders: Ellen Bauman/CC, Geng Chan/B, Nancy Kotarski/BB .
