Ride Info


Routes

There are 4 routes: 15, 30, 62 and 100 miles. (see route maps below)

The 15 and 30 mile routes are flat to rolling along country roads in Williamson County.

The two Century Rides, the 62 mile (100 K) and the 100 mile, leave the Marion for a tour of the Southern Illinois Wine Country.  Both routes pass through the towns of  Goreville and Creal Springs before winding back to the Marion Square through the scenic countryside.

The routes have many rest stops where riders will find water, sports drinks, snacks, restroom facilities and the friendly faces and helpful hands of the many volunteers from the Hands of Hope Clinic.

Additional Route Information

Non-riders, families of the riders and riders after completing their rides will find plenty to do in Marion.  There are many shops in the downtown area as well as malls, restaurants, and hotels near Interstate 57.
