Mid-Atlantic Cycling Events for 2014

The Oxon Hill club has created the webpage for regional events in 2014. Many rides will be added to this page -- it's a great resource for rides in Maryland, DC, Viriginia and nearby states.

Just wanted to let everyone know that early-bird registration for the Southern Maryland Century ends on July 31. This ride will take place on Sunday, Sept 7, 2014, starting in Indian Head, MD. There will be 5 routes to choose from, with distances of 16, 29, 43, 60 and 100 miles.

Registration will be $20 up to July 31. From August 1 - September 5, it will be $30, and walk-in registration on the day of the ride will be $40. Your registration includes:

Cue sheet and map
Route marking
SAG wagon support

Complete information, including links to register and view the route maps, is here: http://ohbike.org/century/index.htm.

I'll be helping out at the Riverside rest stop this year.

Also, I wanted to mention that I did the Firefighter 50 ride in Westminster, MD this past Sunday. This ride raises money for the Pleasant Valley Volunteer Fire Department. It was a long drive for me to get there, but I loved the route and the people were all so friendly. I will try to go back again next year. http://www.firefighter50.com/
