<p>The official answer is you'll have 10.5 hours to finish the ride with full SAG support to help you. After 5pm those sill on the course will be SAG'ed in to the finish or if they refuse to be SAG'ed will be on their own since the ride will have officially ended.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One other point, The official start time has been moved to 6:30am.</p>

<p> Not sure how long you get to finish the 100 mile route, I would think they'd give you 8 hours or so.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>*All 100-mile riders must be on-route by 7:00AM. More leisurely 100-mile riders should be on-route at 6:00AM.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That sub-5 century sounds good, and I'm kind of hoping I can get my own mini peloton going for the 6/12 TDC!!</p>

<p>Bill,</p>
<p>You could ride the <a href="http://www.sub5century.org" target="_blank">Sub-5 Century Challenge Ride</a> in addition to the Tour de Cure. As Dave indicated the field of participants is divided into groups of 15 to 25 riders, who ride the course as a mini peloton. The ride is also a fund raiser; in this case for Parkinson's disease research.</p>
<p>The web site accommodates a team sign up with a common time goal. The target times range from 4:30 to 5:30 for completing the century…</p>

<p>The web site accommodates a team sign up with a common time goal. The target times range from 4:30 to 5:30 for completing the century route. Team sign-up guarantees those members are in the same ride group. Ride groups start three minutes apart, beginning with the fastest. Registration is limited to 200 riders. Fundraising is optional.</p>

<p>I also signed up for the 100 miler. What is the maximum amount of time a rider has to finish? </p>

<p>I would be willing to do this since it is not the same weekend as Tour de Shore (June 17th).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Question - is fundraising required ?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have little time for that even though I have done quite a bit in the past</p>
