Join us for the 17th annual Tarwheel Century.  It's time to put winter aside and get back in the saddle for the 'world's flattest century'.  The Tarwheel Century will be one of the most beautiful rides you can do.  Our completely sagged century will take you through the historical downtown areas of both Elizabeth City and Edenton, NC.  If Mother Nature cooperates, there will be azaleas and dogwood trees in bloom along the attractive waterside. All cyclists are welcome, families too...

 

Start: muffins, banana bread, espresso, coffee, etc.

SAG 1: famous deviled eggs, etc.
SAG 2: fruit smoothies, etc.
SAG 3: animal food for the 100 milers
