  • 100 Miles
    For the more serious rider. Ride the trail from end to end and complete this 50 mile stretch out and back with limited road crossings and plenty of wide open space to spin your wheels



• Century Challenge

  Century Riders doing the 100 Miles will need to ride an additional 8 miles, due to the Withlacoochee Trail being 46 miles (end to end), which adds up to only 92 miles. The additional mileage can be made up several different ways, but we are adding it as a 4 mile out/back section on the Good Neighbor Trail in Hernando County.

  CENTURY RIDERS WILL NO LONGER DO THE 8 MILE LOOP THROUGH CITRUS SPRINGS or DUNNELLON!
