Natchez Trace Century Ride

Ridgeland Natchez Trace Century Ride – May 5, 2018

The Natchez Trace Century Ride is quickly becoming the largest spring cycling event in Mississippi. Over 700 cyclists each year have jumpstarted their cycling season while discovering our small town charm and hospitality and pedaling on stretches of national scenic byway. This ride starts and ends in Ridgeland and provides an experience for riders of all ages and abilities.

Spring brings warmer temperatures in Mississippi…the glimmering waters and abundant wildlife around the Ross Barnett Reservoir will enhance the journey. Countryside stretches in Madison County and Pelahatchie steady the pedals for reflection, and around town spins delight with discovery of each place.

With your choice of distances from 25, 50, 62 and 100 miles with mild to moderate elevation, it is a great ride to find your stride and other specialties along the route. There will be “energizer” stops, food and hands-on fun every 10-15 miles.

And you won’t want to miss “Ridgeland Rockin’ after the Ride!” Cyclists get ready for Visit Ridgeland’s Rockin’ After the Ride event celebrating your participation in the Natchez Trace Century Ride. This year’s Rockin’ will be at the Renaissance Join us for a Cinco de Mayo celebration, hors d’oeuvres, beverages, a great music lineup and the yearly bicycle giveaway (must be present to win). Rockin’ VIP admission is open to each registered cyclist and one guest. Tickets will be distributed at registration. Rockin’ After the Ride – 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Post-ride social presented by Ridgeland Tourism Commission.
