Two Road Rides in One: Metric and Imperial Centuries



We have two ways for you to do a “CENTURY” this weekend!
We’ll start with a 62.7 mile loop (A Metric Century = 100km = 62.2mi)
down to Newark with rest stops along the way.
After returning to the start, there will be a short break and then the Imperial Century (100 miles!) riders will go out for a 39.6 mile loop down to Big Rock.

(There is Hill’s Country Store next to the start to refuel or plan ahead and leave some provisions in your car.)


Ride with GPS routes listed below:

KCC-NEW-062mi-A


KCC-BR-040mi-A


The above two routes were combined into one file below. We’ll “reuse” some portions of the route for the last 39.6 miles. GPS units react differently sometimes when sections are used twice. Your call if you want to load 2 separate files or one.

KCC-NEW-102mi-A

 

This is a NO DROP ride with expected overall average ride pace of 15-17 mph. Accordion riding expected (riders will separate and regroup (at safe distance) at major turns.

 

Strongly suggest you have a map/cue sheet of the route and/or loaded on your GPS/phone.

 


Please also note the following:

• In accordance with Restore Illinois Phase 4 guidelines, Minimum Social Distancing rules must be followed (strongly recommend more than 6 feet while riding).

 

• Any riders wanting to join MUST text prior to 8:00 PM Saturday night confirming they wish to ride. This is so that we know who is planning to join in the event of a last-minute change of start time or cancelation due to weather. NO TEXT, NO RIDE.


Text 630-750-5915 if you plan on doing the 62 mile ride.


Text 630-567-2300 if you plan on doing the 102 mile ride.

• For any/all stops, riders must wear a mask to enter public facilities.

•Non-FVBSC Members/Guests:  We encourage riders who do not know about the Club to take us out for a "test ride" or two.  A waiver must be signed by non-Members prior to the ride.  Per our Insurance company's guidelines, a guest may join a Club ride for a maximum of two events.  After that, they must be a Club member to continue riding with us.  This is for liability insurance reasons, as well as supporting expenses for the Club website, RidewithGPS Club subscription, etc.
