CBBC York County Century

CBBC will be hosting two long (but not hilly) rides on Saturday, Sept. 14th (rain date Sunday, Sept. 15th) across York County, Maine. These are self-supported rides with 2 food stops for the metric century ride and 3 food stops for the full century ride. Please bring plenty of water and snacks. The rides start at the Marblehead Boat Launch in Biddeford at 7:30 AM. The ride leaders will be doing the full century so anyone doing the metric century will be on their own. 

At this time there are about a half dozen people doing each ride. More are welcome! 

CBBC is also looking at hosting a local shorter (30-35 mile) ride for those not up to 60+ miles on Saturday.
