100K-62 Miles
The 100K ride is a relentless hill climbing experience with over 4,400 feet of climbing on this loop. The ride quickly leaves the town of Rutherfordton and puts the rider on some of the most beautiful and lightly traveled country roads around. Prior training for this ride is a must as this is not an easy ride, but for those looking for a challenge it is the ride for you. The ride has two rest stops at approximately 24.7 miles and 42 miles. Both stops have a restroom or Port-a-John. A map of the course is provided below.
