September 6, 2008 Century for the Cure

Please save the date for The Century for the Cure bike ride scheduled
for Saturday, September 6, 2008.

The Century for the Cure is a picturesque, 100 mile ride through
central Jersey. Starting at Camp Riverbend in Warren, NJ (Somerset County), we travel through the Great Swamp, the horse country of Far Hills and Bedminster towards Flemington, where we loop back towards the finish at Camp Riverbend. The terrain is hilly at times, although the last 10 miles are "all downhill". When you cross the finish line, you will have a tremendous sense of accomplishment, knowing that you not only finished the ride, but you also played a major role in helping to cure cancer through your fundraising! The Century for the Cure 100 mile bike-a-thon raises money for The Cancer Institute of New Jersey (CINJ). The event is a ride, not a race and is sure to be an uplifting and rewarding experience. Our success is built on the support of passionate riders and volunteers who finish the
day knowing that the event is about more than just the day. For more information about the ride, please visit
