Hello Hello!!

We're a few days out from go time and the weather is still keeping us guessing, but hey, that's half the fun right?! Mother Nature aside, here to share some important information with you all prior to race day. See below for tips, links, and alerts!

 

Quick notes for this year: 

We've cleared the 100 mark for registered women which is awesome for the growth of not only the Rough Road 100 but for cycling events in general. Thanks to all those who helped spread the word and outreach to make this happen!! 

 

It also looks like we have a lot of new riders this year which is also awesome, so thanks to all of you who have helped encourage others to come out and experience the RR100. If you're an old pro and/or have done our event before, share a smile or a hello with those around you, let's keep this community welcoming for everyone. Let's do this!

 

Bike Number Plate attachment:

Please follow the below pics for securing number plates to your bike. This assures the timing system can get a read on your chip. This helps for both the start and the finish so we know who started and who may still be out on course.

Course Markings:

We have been told our course is marked very well, so if it ain't broke.... We have both signage and road markings, so be on the alert for signs leading up to turns and a turn confirmation sign as well. We also mark the road surface extensively with these types of markings. Note, you only see road markings where you need to turn, if you cross an intersection and there are no marks, keep going straight!

  ​

 

Course Links:

You can find links for both distances on this page!

This will take you to Ride with GPS, no login necessary, you'll see an export/upload button on the left, if you need something other than what you see, you can click the 3 dots for more options.

 

Course Alerts:

We definitely know about the downed trees and have reached out to ILDNR for path maintenance. They are very good about clearing the path, but no telling what Mother Nature may bring the night before or the day of!

 

Thanks to a number of folks pre-riding and sharing course info, some will be very happy to know we will skip the 'cyclocross' portion near the finish this year due to construction. Maps have been updated on the roughroad100.com site to reflect this course update.

 

Follow social channels for more potential updates Friday as we set the course!

 

Get stoked, see you Saturday!!

cheers,

craig & brian
