Great Ride! Marked so well I only took one wrong turn. I must say, I did the Door County Century this year, and the people on the NCS were WAY more relaxed and supportive. Loved it!

Great ride this year, super well organized and a big ups to all the volunteers.  Including my old 8th grade teacher!

Evanston Bike Club does it again!  To all of the volunteers, thank you so much.  The rest stops are all so good with not a Cliff Bar in sight, but wonderful, sustaining food.  You even managed perfect weather. :-)

If anyone is still awake or checks this in the morning--Chainlink will have a table.  I am volunteering as soon as I finish.  Stop by!

Only rode 50 last year, but that part was well-marked overall.  There was one spot in Lake Forest where the markings were not quite as obvious as the rest of the route.  A few of us made a wrong turn and had to stop to read the directions.  So actually, I ended up riding more than 50 :-)

First time as well, doing the 100. Wondering how well it's marked. Looking forward to it.

First time doing it so just doing the 70 miles since its only 8 miles more then the metric kinda stoked about it.
