134.0. "When is Tiverton Century?" by SEARS::DAILEY () Fri Aug 15 1986 00:09

    Does anyone know when this year's Tiverton, RI Century is
    going to be held?  Is it the first Sunday in September?
    
    Thanks.

134.1yep, sep 7BANZAI::FISHERFri Aug 15 1986 07:278
Yes, Sept 7.

I will miss Tiverton this year, perhaps I'll do it on the 13th or 14th.
But then, there's lots of other Centuries around.

Enjoy.

134.2 Start Early !EUCLID::PAULHUSFri Aug 15 1986 11:479
    
    There will probably be 10 - 15 people from Nashoba Valley Pedalers
    (including some first timers) doing it this year.  It's my favorite.
    I'll be riding with a first-timer so no quick times this year. 
    	Hint for people who haven't done TFCE before:
    The west to east headwinds come up in the afternoon. These cause
    a bit of a problem on the last 15 miles or so of the ride - it's
    rather open and unprotected in spots. So START EARLY !!  Try to
    get going by 7:00.   - Chris

    Re .1  - Thanks for the confirmation.
    
    Re .2  - Good point.  Last time I went we arrived late and missed
    most of the other riders.  What is bike ride without other riders?!
    
    Re .3   - Yes, thanks for the directions.

	Is preregistration required?  Or just come and ride?

	Cost?

	Bring our own food, or can we buy along the way?

We're two-time and seven-time survivors of TOSRV (Tour of Scioto
River Valley, Southern Ohio, 105 south on Saturday, 105 north on
Sunday).  What should we expect differently here?
