Registration is open for the 21st annual Six Gap Century and Three Gap Fifty Bike Ride, scheduled for September 27th. For information or to register, visit cyclenorthgeorgia.com.

Registration is also open for the second annual Valley Ride. This 35-mile valley option is a great introduction to the infamous Six Gap Century. Taking place in Georgia’s premier cycling venue, the Six Gap Valley Ride boasts some of the most scenic mountainsides in the Southeast. This route will cast a special spotlight onto Yahoola Valley, Turner’s Corner, and R-Ranch in the Mountains.

There was a major change in the route last year, bringing the Century up to 11,200 vertical feet of climbing. Route maps, cue sheets and elevation profiles for the Six Gap Century, Three Gap Fifty and Valley Ride are all available at cyclenorthgeorgia.com.
