About this event

Are you planning to ride the AOTC 100K on Apr 11? Or just want to do some climbing? This ride is for you!

Starting at Silvermont Mansion, the route follows the start of the AOTC route down Highway 178 to the Holly Springs convenience store at the Hwy 11 - Hwy 178 intersection (our rest stop), then returns to the start through Rosman. The return from SC includes significant climbing, there is 2,300' of elevation gain in the twelve miles from Holly Springs to the Continental Divide.

You can easily cut this short/reduce the climbing by turning around on Hwy 178 before you get to SC Hwy 11 - Rocky Bottom is a popular point to turn around - mile 20 of the route.

I'm targeting 13.5 mph avg (Pace Level 3) for a slow B Ride and will regroup at the rest stop at the Holly Springs convenience store, mile 27.

Contact me if you have any questions.
