About riding in Alabama
Alabama's roads run from the rolling foothills of the southern Appalachians in the north to flat, humid Gulf Coast plains in the south. Summers are hot and muggy, so spring and fall are the best riding seasons, and events often start early to beat the afternoon heat.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 100 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 10h 00m |
| 12 mph | 8h 20m |
| 14 mph | 7h 09m |
| 16 mph | 6h 15m |
| 18 mph | 5h 33m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
