About this event

Update:  The forecast for Sunday, Feb 8 is looking less windy and slightly warmer than Saturday. We'll make the decision late Thursday.

Let's keep the momentum going for 2026 with another epic ride! Still cold! Let's try for another Saturday - this time February 7th.

Bud and I are planning to ride a Century consisting of two rides from Etowah Park. You can join us for both or just one of the rides.

Ride 1 - 50 miles/3,145 ft
Start: 8:30 AM
Route:  RwGPS Route: ETW-Flat Rock-Dana-50

Ride 2 - 50 miles/2,083 ft
Start: Noon
Route:   RwGPS Route: ETW-Rosman-50

Dawn plans to ride a 15-16 mph avg moving pace, Pace Level 4. We'll regroup as needed but will be on a schedule so we can finish before dark.
Bud plans to ride a 17-18 mph avg moving pace, Pace Level 2.

Always ensure you have the route, can ride at least a Level 4 pace, are fully self-sufficient to complete the ride on your own, and have the ride leader's cell number if dropped. Contact either ride leader if you have any questions.

EQUIPMENT: Helmets and water bottles are mandatory. Have the route on your bike computer, phone, or printed cue sheet. Front facing headlights and rear blinking lights are highly recommended for this ride. You should be fully self-sufficient for repair of flat tires or small mechanical issues.

NOTE: All rides leave promptly at the time stated. Give yourself enough time (at least fifteen minutes) to get your bike unloaded and all geared up!

WEATHER: Please remember if the weather looks "iffy" or gets bad before the start date and time, then the ride leaders may not be there and you will be riding on your own. Western NC (and SC) is a very large area and some places could be sunshine and other places bad weather.
