Join over 1000 riders on Saturday, May 12, for one of Virginia’s largest cycling events — the Capital to Capital ride, aka Cap2Cap — a fundraiser for the Virginia Capital Trail Foundation.
When completed, the Virginia Capital Trail will run 55 miles along the Scenic Route 5 corridor, and connect past and present capitals of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Richmond.
Cap2Cap is unique in having starts at both ends, Richmond and Williamsburg, with quarter, half, and full century out-and-back ride options. Pedal through 400 years of Virginia history, and help raise funds to make the Capital Trail a world-class experience.
The 15-mile family ride returns for 2012, along with youth pricing for the quarter, half, and full century rides. Also new this year is a jersey:

Total milage?
Thanks,

Carol: the whole route both ways is a full century, a little over 100 miles. Most people find a road bike to be more efficient, and easier for long rides; but comfort for 5-8 hours is most important.
Is there enough room for team racing and speed on the trail?
