The Centurion 100-mile cycling race will again roll through town on Sunday, September 16, with the top racers reaching Mill Street at around 9:30 am. But this year, the big race will not be the only show in town. The Creemore BIA is presenting the “Creemore Kids Cent Ride,” so named because the ride’s one-mile distance is one one-hundredth of the Centurion.
The kid’s ride will begin at 11:45 am at Mad River Park. The one-mile circuit will take the kids north on Mill to Elizabeth, east on Elizabeth to Library, north on Library to Caroline, west on Caroline back to Mill, and south on Mill back to the park.
Children who will be between five and nine years old on December 31, 2012 will ride the loop once; those who will be between 10 and 13 will ride it twice.
The first 50 registrants will receive a special event t-shirt. There will be other prizes and giveaways throughout the day.
Registration is free; to sign up call Thom Paterson at 705-466-6321 or Corey Finkelstein at 705-520-0110 or email them at tpaterson@clearview.ca or corey@inzaneplanet.com.
