The Horsey Hundred is the premier cycling event in Kentucky and the signature event of the Bluegrass Cycling Club.
We've come a long way since the inaugural Horsey Hundred was held at the Kentucky Horse Park (Lexington, KY) in 1978.
The first event featured 50-mile routes on Saturday and Sunday with an optional Century ride on Saturday.
No records exist of how many participated the first year, but the next year (1979) had 65 participants. The event now
hosts some 3,000 riders.

The OKHT will again explore scenic Oldham County in 2023 with ride lengths of 62, 40 and 20 miles. The "World Famous

hills of Oldham County. Routes also visit historic LaGrange.

160 miles, One Way, One Day! Ride Across Indiana (RAIN) will be held Saturday, July 15th.

traverses Indiana from west to east along US Rt 40 and country roads around Indianapolis, ending at Earlham
College in Richmond, Indiana. Hope for a strong westerly wind and mild temperatures, but the event has seen
storms, blazing heat, and, yes, even a nagging easterly wind some years. No matter what the weather,
RAIN promises to be an adventure you won't soon forget.
