Sea Gull Century
Sea Gull Century is a nationally acclaimed bicycling event, beginning and ending on the campus of Salisbury University. SGC has two routes: the Assateague Century (100 miles) and Princess Anne/Pocomoke Metric (63 miles.) Each route tours the picturesque Eastern Shore of Maryland
Starting and ending at Salisbury University, the Sea Gull Century began in 1988, when a group of 68 cycling enthusiasts banded together to develop a 100-mile century ride. Now, riders come in the thousands—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.
It is a great event and well supported and the route had so little traffic it was amazing and I highly recommend it with photos below.
This year it was 107 miles long and We rode all the way onto Assateague Island and saw wild horses –
What a great ride and I did this with Alex and (Alex did it in only 6.5 hours) and I did it in (7 hours and 45 minutes) and wow I cramped. The map below did not record the last 7 miles for some reason as I might have hit a button on it calling home. Photos below
