saturday: c-u across the prarie!

This Saturday, 14 August, the Prairie Cycle Club will host C-U Across the Prairie, the group's annual metric century ride.  That's 100 kilometres... or 65 miles for those of you who prefer freedom fries.

It's a supported ride, which means there'll be a sag-wagon in case you, um, can't find potable water for four hours during the century and then try to get some from a public park near Monticello but then it's probably not potable anyway and you have to do the last twenty miles thinking you've ingested a parasite.  Not that that happened.

Anyway, C-U Across the Prairie also features 35- and 17-mile rides for those who'd like to bike it but don't want to do the full 65.

The ride departs from Mahomet this Saturday morning and breakfast and lunch will be provided.

You can register here.
