About the event
Many have enjoyed the challenge of the Savage as a “ride of passage”. Others return each year to enjoy the rural beauty of Chester and Lancaster Counties—from the simple charm of Pennsylvania Dutch and Amish farmlands to the scenic vistas from the hills along the Susquehanna River. Warm up on rolling hills heading west of Newark DE toward Nottingham PA. Then head for steeper hills and put your training to the test on the infamous Slate Hill, Bradys Hill, Pilgrims Pathway and Furniss Road!
For those new to the Savage Century, it is recommended for the longer routes that bikes be equipped with a low gear of about 40 gear-inches (e.g. 28-tooth rear sprocket and 42-tooth chain ring on typical road bike with a 27-inch tire) or lower to prevent undue strain on the major hills. Come for the ride. Ride for the challenge!
