This 45-mile bicycle ride through scenic Macon County, Smith County and Trousdale County is a moderate course with some very fast flats and four good climbs. There is Sag support and a rest stop at around mile 20. The proceeds from this ride will help the Lafayette Lion’s Club buy glasses, pay for eye surgeries, and buy hearing aids for Macon Co. citizens who cannot afford it.
The riding routes for the Tour de Boro are beautiful scenic back roads throughout Rutherford and Williamson County. The 62 mile route is loaded with rolling hills, long challenging climbs, and fast descents. The 17 and 31 mile routes are flat and fast with a couple of rolling hills.
The 62-mile course promises to be challenging with plenty of rolling hills and all the beauty that goes with it. The beginning of the ride heads towards Eagleville, which is very flat and easy for the first 10 miles. This is where the terrain starts to change, from this point on the ride gets a little more hilly, but without killer hills to ascend, just lots of rollers. Ride the fully supported 62-mile course and if your legs are feeling fresh we have added an optional flat loop to give you a full century.
The 31 mile option starts off with the 62 mile course. You will ride the first 8 miles together and then rejoin at mile 43 of the 62 mile course. The 31 mile route is less challenging with fewer hills but no less beautiful than the 62.
The Music City Double Century is a loop route of 202 miles that departs from the Model Airplane Field in southwest Nashville. The riders will head northwest towards Ashland City and then turn west heading to the town of Tennessee Ridge (71 miles). After turning south, the route takes the riders to Buffalo (114 miles) and then southeast to Shady Grove (161 miles). At Shady Grove, the riders will head north on the Natchez Trace Parkway to the terminus in Pasquo (196 miles). From here, the finish is only 6 miles away.
A fantastic new course that goes on remote back roads through to Lynchburg and back with the Century riders looping off through Cofee and Bedford counties. Though no climb to Sewanee the course is hilly and challenging (hence the monetary incentive). The course also is incredibly beautiful; it is a good alternative to the old Dogwood course which will be used again (every other year).
The Tour de Cashiers (TdC) is located in the beautiful town of Cashiers, NC. The TdC offers many wonderful bike rides around the scenic mountains of Western North Carolina.
