This century also, is plenty picturesque,.. and is surprisingly easy,..with
few hills. Ride is well supported with rest stops and "Sag Wagon
support,..the bonus is the food & party afterwards at Hyde Away Lodge...really
a happening! Don't miss this Century. Absolutely "A plus!"

This ride has never been a disappointment. The rest stops are always
well stocked with food and drink the cyclists need. This ride grows in
participation each year.

This was the "BEST" of the seven century rides I did last year. With only four turns, you can get up a head of steam and keep going. Excellent food! Both during and after. I'll go back for my third time.
This was my first century and I can't imagine they get better than this one. Excellent rest stops, scenic VT countryside. I will be back, it was extremely enjoyable.
I have participated in this ride 4 times and plan to go back every year. The ride is very scenic and surprisingly flat considering it takes place in the "Green Mountain State". The participants are very friendly and the stops are well stocked and convenient. One suggestion would be to have the start and finish take place in the same spot. Having to get off your bike to check in after 108 miles and then getting back on your bike to ride back to your car is not ideal. Overall though, a great century. Mark it on your calendar!

2006 — We wanted to thank you for a great ride yesterday. You did
everything right, down to the last detail. It was our first with MRV,
but not our last.
