Century Training Series are open only to registered program members. The intent is to provide 8 progressively challenging rides over 8 weekends to help you prepare for the CRW Cranberry Century in October. If you are interested in joining, please contact Ken Schwarz (ken.schwarz@crw.org) to discuss and receive a registration code.
Helmets are required on all CRW rides. Riders are expected to adhere to CRW Code of Conduct, and to be familiar with CRW’s Rider Guidelines, Group Riding Guidelines, and Pedestrian Awareness Guidelines. (20250430)

A classic CRW ride with a new twist, intended to be fun and friendly for participants at all paces. The 30-mile route offers a brief rest stop just past the mid-point at Great Brook Farm, which offers water and restrooms. Gather for a coffee / pastry / lunch break and social after the ride at Tatte Bakery & Café in Lexington (on the left ~3 blocks past the Minuteman Statue on Mass. Ave).
On Saturday mornings, I recommend the Depot Lot ($0.50/hour), where you can park all day and which is accessible from Meriam Street or from Depot Square via Mass. Ave.
On Sunday mornings, you can likely find a parking spot along the Battle Green.
Many riders ride to and from the start (even from Boston).
Best bet may be one of the cafes in Lexington Center.
