Many cyclists have a goal of riding 100 miles in a single day — a century. That is a worthy and attainable goal. Around these parts, it usually means having to deal with hills, and lots of them.

If a century is your goal, try a weekend in the valley with a pair of 50-plus mile rides to get you on your way.
