Just wanted to bump this for anyone who might be thinking about signing up for any rides in September.

Registration is open for the Southern Maryland Century on Sept 8.

http://ohbike.org/century/index.htm

Choose from 16, 29, 43, 60 and 100 mile options.

Early Registration through July 31 is $20.
Registration from August 1 to September 6 is $30.
($40 on the day of the ride.)

I've volunteered at this ride twice and I saw many happy cyclists both times. Not sure yet if I'll be able to help out again this year, but I guarantee you will meet some very friendly people volunteering at the rest stops and post-ride picnic.


Also, for the PPTC Backroads Century on Sept 22, registration is still open. In the past few years they have filled up in advance of the ride date. Early-bird registrations ends July 31. I'm signed up to do the metric version for this one -- after all these years cycling in the DC area, it's my first time doing this ride.
