I set a lifetime goal in 2004 to ride a century in every state. That is normally defined as 100 miles on a bicycle in a day. I completed that quest in 2013. Along the way, I wrote about the stories, the people, the roads, the scenery, or the nearby events. This is a record of these (with some photos still available!). I have continued to document my bicycling at http://kencomer.org/bike. A full picture from each state can be found at: https://kencomer.org/50-states-50-centuries/ .

This is where I discuss the history, planning, and accomplishments of the Fifty Centuries Project. I am moving forward for plans to do six to eight centuries in 2011. The first will be in North Carolina in late April. The last will be in South Carolina in early December. In between, I'll be spending occasional weekends throughout the country trying the hospitality of local bicycle clubs.
Right now the project stands at 22 states 'completed'. And, I plan to improve my fitness level over the spring so that I can begin chalking up states in the spring, summer, and fall. I'll use this blog to document the whole thing.
