Horsey Hundred

Experience Kentucky’s Bluegrass on a Bicycle! The 35th annual Horsey Hundred will be held the weekend of May 25-27, 2012, in Georgetown, Kentucky. Won't you grab your bike and join us?

In addition to a visit to the beauty of springtime in the Bluegrass, this year’s Horsey offers our traditional Saturday century route through both challenging and beautiful central Kentucky terrain. One of the Sunday ride options even includes a roll through the streets of Paris… Kentucky! So saddle up bike riders and join us for the 35th annual Horsey Hundred cycling event.

Ride Options

Saturday route options include 26, 35, 53, 75, and the traditional Horsey Hundred. Sunday routes will take you in different directions on your choice of a 30 mile loop, a 50 miler through Paris or a 75-miler through the heart of the Bluegrass. All routes return each day to the Georgetown starting point. Recommended starting times between 8 and 10 a.m. are listed on the route maps. The Horsey Hundred is not a race, it is an opportunity share your cycling passion with the camaraderie of others in Kentucky horse country. This is a tandem friendly event with rolling hills and well maintained roads.
