Every fall since 1967, thousands of cyclists from across the midwest, (and beyond) have made their way to southern Indiana to participate in the Hilly Hundred Weekend, October 25-27 .

 Join more than 2,000 cyclists for 2-days of riding on the scenic back roads of Owen and Greene County. Each day offers distances of 30 or 50 miles, with multiple sag stops and a lunch stop with live music.

The Hilly Hundred Weekend is sponsored by the Central Indiana Bicycling Association, Inc. Based in Indianapolis, but with a wide-spread membership, CIBA is one of the largest and most active bicycle clubs in the United States. You can learn more about CIBA on their web site, http://www.cibaride.org.
