Saturday is the flagship day with five route choices ranging from 26 miles to the iconic Century. On Sunday you have your choice of four rides ranging from 21 – 74 miles. On either day you will wind your way through and around the Bluegrass region and be treated to some of the most beautiful scenery you can imagine including horse farms, stone fences, rivers, streams, lush pastures, historic towns, and bourbon distilleries.

What Riders Say

Reviews

Beautiful countryside, low traffic, courteous drivers, friendly participants, excellent volunteers, many ride options. Our favorite of all rides!

Always a professional event. My favorite of the Kentucky Challenge. Looking forward to next year. Could you hold two per year?

Very well organized. Great support with sag vehicles clearly, frequently visible. Great volunteers, so friendly and helpful. Great group of riders, friendly and nice. This is my 4th time and I’ll be back. I rode by myself as all my friend riders had to bail for various reasons. I am glad I came and rode. Beautiful country, great support, and enthusiastic riders.

All the volunteers I encountered were friendly and helpful and did a terrific job!  Route selection was excellent with great road markings. Rest stops were well placed and filled with great snacks.
