FAQ's

 

Q: How is a Gran Fondo different from a Century ride?
A: The main difference between a Gran Fondo and a Century is a timing element and the level of support you will receive.  The U.S. Bicycling Hall of Fame will provide advanced support to the Legends Gran Fondo “pack”, including many race-like features.  This includes a Police rolling enclosure out of town, well-stocked Rest & Refuel Stops, course timing and medical/tech support.
