Historic Back Roads Century
Mark your calendars for September 16, 2007!
This year's Century will be held in the gently rolling, scenic Shenandoah Valley in Virginia and West Virginia, starting and finishing at Clarke County High School, 240 Westwood Road, Berryville, VA, 22611. Start training now for the 100 miles of a full English century, but if you are not ready for the 100, there will still be a route for you, your family and friends, with distances of quarter century (25 miles), half century (50 miles), and metric century (100 km or 62 miles).
We have a reputation for a well-planned and marked route, lots of great food (including tomato sandwiches), and plenty of friendly volunteers. Join us this year for another great event!
Pregistration is closed, but you can still register on site the morning of the event. If you like you can fill out a registration form here to bring with you. Don't miss this lovely ride through the historic Shenandoah Valley.

Century Group Riding
I am planning to complete my first century on the 16th. I am a B class rider and was wondering if people are trying to pair up with groups to ride together? I would be interested in having some people to ride with.
