Avalon century out & back ride — 111.39 mi
You're looking at a 111-mile out-and-back on paved roads with about 1,073 ft of climbing spread across the ride. Fair warning: you'll spend a good chunk of time on busier roads (just over half the route), so stay sharp on traffic. Head out, find your turnaround, and retrace your way home.
Avalon century loop ride — 108.19 mi
This is a long, mostly paved loop heading north with about 655 ft of climbing spread across the ride — manageable for an all-day mission. You'll spend a good chunk on busier roads (roughly a third of the route has traffic), so pick your time of day accordingly. Expect just over seven hours in the saddle on smooth pavement with minimal gravel interruptions.
