Many bicycle rides cross states that are measured
in hundreds of miles and many days. The White Clay Bicycle Club offers
an alternative that is modest in time, effort and stamina (a bicycle ride
nearly anyone can do) that crosses and “doublecrosses” an
entire state in only 31 total miles over flat terrain. In addition to
the traditional route, we offer a 62-mile (metric century) route for those
who would like a longer ride.
The 31-mile loop includes a food stop. The
62-mile loop includes three food stops
