Thank you to the nearly 700 cyclists who braved the forecast and rode The Scenic Schuylkill Century, plus the over 100 terrific volunteers, bike shops (REI, Keswick Cycle, Bike Sport and Cadence) and rest stop providers (Cedar Grove, Evansburg, Grace Assembly Church and Valley Forge) who were instrumental to our success.

Want to help
out? This event runs on "people power" and it requires the
effort of many folks to make it a success. Want to ride and volunteer? There
are many tasks that occur prior to the day of the ride, or early in the day of
the ride that leave plenty of time to go on the ride.
