The Jacob Francisco Memorial Century includes quarter century and metric century routes beginning at ETSU.  Before climbing Buffalo Mountain, the quarter and metric centurions travel along the high end of Sinking Creek.  The century routes go over Buffalo Mountain within the first 10 miles, and the remaining route of the quater century is mostly flat returning to ETSU.  The metric century follows the Nolichucky River and finds some rolling hills around Washington County before returning to ETSU through historic Jonesborough.

Well stocked rest stops for both routes, and post-ride meal available for metric centurions.  All cyclists are eligible for door prizes upon checking in after completing the event.

Metric Century (62 miles) $30, Quarter Century (25 miles) $30  Proceeds support clean water efforts.
