About riding in Georgia
Georgia ranges from the Blue Ridge foothills in the north, with real climbing and long descents, to flat coastal plains in the south. Summers are hot and humid, so most events are held in spring and fall. North Georgia is especially popular for hilly rides.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 90 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 | 9h 00m |
| 12 mph | 7h 30m |
| 14 mph | 6h 26m |
| 16 mph | 5h 38m |
| 18 mph | 5h 00m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
