We need to correct a little mistake in the May Spokesman relative to the venue for the May 16th Friday night social. It will be held at the Mt Gretna Pizzeria (as described on page 6 of the Spokesman), NOT the Farmer's Wife Restaurant as indicated on page 17. Sorry about that! Please pass this along to anyone you know may be attending! Thanks! |

The Harrisburg Bicycle Club will be holding its annual Century Ride, the Three Creek Century, starting from LeTort Park in Carlisle, PA on Sunday, September 21st.

Routes of 100, 75, 50, and 25-mile lengths are available. Cue sheets, sag wagons and rest stops are provided on all routes, as well as markings on the road to guide the riders on the routes. This ride is a major source of operating funds for HBC, so come and support your bike club! Walk in registrations are welcomed on the day of the event. Cost of registration is $15 if postmarked by August 23 and $25 if postmarked later ($7.50 for 16 & under). Registration forms and directions are available HERE. You can also register on-line for a nominal fee at Active.Com. Participants under the age of 18 must have the signature of a parent or legal guardian to ride in the event.
