Peach of a Century

Yesterday, September 23, Tom and I rode the Peach of a Century (100 K). It was our first time doing this ride...it was a lot of fun. Mostly flat except for a hill with 8% gradient after about 15 miles and then the steady climb coming out of Stayton. The day turned out to be perfect, no rain and not too warm. We rode past farms on quiet backroads and enjoyed two rest stops and peach pie at the finish.

Ride Time: 4 hrs 21 min 36 sec.

Here is a link to the Salem Bicycle Club website and the route map if you are curious...
