The Dirty Century is more of a tour type ride, including food and a sag vehicle.
It's cool to see there are others out there hitting the dirt.
Tonight I received this email from Eric, who is organizing it:

There's also the Gold Belt Century.
ReplyDeleteI took part in this one last year; a great ride. It, too, is more of a social affair; not really a race, per se. Still, if you're just looking to get in some great gravel miles with great folks, check it out. I had a blast. There were only 5 of us last year, and I was the only one from the Springs area. I was really surprised by that, as it's a great ride right here in our backyard.
Cool, thanks. I can do a post on this one.
