Route Description: 

Challenge yourself on the ultimate milestone ride and this 100 mile tour across Oxford County. This route is ideal for the goal setters and those training for long distance road rides or races. The long stretches of quiet, well paved and relatively flat country roads are perfect to clock some kilometers and work on speed.

Towns enroute offer a variety of options for refueling, or extended stops, making it easy to travel light. Break the ride into a two day event with an overnight rest at a local hotel, inn or bed and breakfast. Connect to shorter routes nearby or roads suited for short turns if needed. This Century Ride uses rural roads already popular with cyclists through such a scenic mix of farmlands, roadside forests, rivers and stream crossings, riders may not even notice the kilometers clicking by. 

Route Option and Notes: 

To shorten the ride recommended roads include: Salford Road, between Burgessville and Salford; Beachville Road, between Ingersoll, Woodstock and County Road 33, via Embro. Reduce speeds travelling through towns and communities. Prevailing winds flow out of the northwest and wind speed should be considered on ride days.
