Ride Description:
The Cranberry Harvest Century (CHC) is a fall classic in Plymouth MA with beautiful routes passing cranberry bogs to Mattapoisett and back. Come join us for another fully-supported event with 4 beautiful routes: 100, 62, 53, and 35 miles. The CHC captures some of the most charming roads in New England. It is also relatively flat and very manageable for riders of all abilities. All rides start at Myles Standish State Forest in Plymouth and travel through the cranberry bogs in Rochester, Wareham, Carver and Acushnet. Rides include rest stops at Eastover, Tamarak and on the beautiful wharf in Mattapoisett. You will enjoy food and drink at rest stops along the route and after party at College Pond at the finish.
