JIM RYAN MEMORIAL ROUTE

100 km Route: 9:00 a.m. start 

• Designed for the more experienced road bike enthusiast with previous experience on road bikes on longer rides
• Route is similar to the 90 km course except that it runs up to about 5 km beyond the Deep Bay  turn-off, down to the Old Island Hwy and back into Parksville
• Cyclists should have the ability and necessary tools to do minor repairs to their bikes, if needed
• Cyclists riding this route would be expected to maintain an average speed that would allow them to complete the ride in 4 – 4 1/2 hrs.[min av22kmh]. Those not able to achieve this and arrive at the Horne Lake Road turnoff by 10:45 am will be instructed to take the Horne lake turnoff and complete the 70km event.
