This premier Southeast cycling event returns for its 24th year on Saturday, June 6, in Vonore, TN, brought to you by the Smoky Mountain Wheelmen, offering three fully supported routes to suit different fitness levels: a 35-mile valley option, a 62-mile metric century with 3,700 feet of climbing, or an epic 115-mile century with 10,350 feet of elevation gain that takes you across two states including the famous Dragon's 318 curves and the breathtaking Cherohala Skyway. Every participant gets a custom t-shirt and post-ride meal with full support throughout the ride—rest stops, mechanical assistance, and moto support included—plus century finishers who complete the distance in under 7 hours receive a special Dragon Slayer medal!
