Ride with us on October 4, 2008
In
2008, Salisbury University celebrates the 20th annual Sea Gull
Century on Saturday, October 4. A 100-kilometer (64 miles) or
100-mile ride, the Sea Gull Century is a “Best Bicycling in America”
event that has been named among the top 10
century rides in the
nation by Bicycling magazine. The Ride Magazine has called the
century
“one of the prettiest big rides in America.”
The Washington
Post has named it “by far the most popular local century” in the Maryland-Delaware-Virginia region. Starting and ending at SU, the
Sea Gull Century began 19 years ago when a group of 68 cycling enthusiasts banded together to develop a 100-mile century ride. Now,
some 6,000 cyclists come—some of them year after year—because of the
terrain, the challenge, the food, the entertainment, the chance to
explore a new area and the hundreds of friendly volunteers who make
the Sea Gull Century happen.
