Event details and schedule
The Civil War Century is an event with five different routes that are designed for different ability levels, from the 25 mile Covered Bridge Quarter Century for beginners and those that don't ride long and hilly rides up to the 100+ mile Civil War Century which is intended for experienced, well trained cyclists that have done at least a couple of centuries already. For the history buff, you can visit Crampton's Gap, South Mountain, Antietam and/or Gettysburg battlefield sites. You'll see all four if you elect to ride the full century.
Organize your ride crew as a team for a discount! Captain names the team for others to join.
DetermiNation is the American Cancer Society’s event endurance program, spanning a variety of sports including cycling, running, hiking, yoga, and more. The collective efforts of the dedicated athletes who use their fortitude to help raise funds to take down cancer are nothing short of amazing. When you join DetermiNation, you’re not just participating in an endurance event. You’re pushing yourself to help save lives from cancer. Just like hard work goes into your event training, the American Cancer Society gives it our all through things like breakthrough research, patient programs and services, and a free 24/7 cancer helpline. Together, we’ll tackle every course, rally every community, and stay absolutely relentless in the fight against cancer.

Franklin County Cyclists presents MICHAUX GRVL 2026
The Franklin County Cyclists are excited to once again host Michaux GRVL for 2026, and are offering 4 awesome routes with a fun scavenger hunt on all courses for everyone!
We are continuing to partner with 2 great local groups for this event; Friends of Michaux State Forest and Bulldog Bike Park. Proceeds from this year's event will be distributed to both groups, and each will be active participants in the event by running aid stations and providing volunteers along the route.
Our 2026 Beneficiaries:
MICHAUX GRVL 2026 is a ride and race to be taken at your own pace. We will be offering timing on each route for those interested in their personal statistics, and results will be posted on our website following the event. The fast may go fast & the slow may go slow. The routes we've got on tap take you through some wonderful scenery, so stop and take it in!
We recommend the use of gravel bikes with tires of at least 35mm for any route since some stretches of road can be chunky and there is a risk of punctures with smaller tires on the downhill sections of the courses.
There will be no day-of registrations, and all participants must complete their registrations on BikeReg prior to the close of the event registration. We are coordinating a pre-race packet pick up on Friday evening 6-8pm September 25, 2026 with Michaux Brewing Co. (11657 Buchanan Trail E, Waynesboro, PA 17268). Day-of packet pick up will be available prior to the start - we STRONGLY encourage 100 mile riders to pick their packet up the day prior.

AID STATION AND FINISH CUTOFF TIMES
While we want everyone to have a great time and finish the ride, we also must take into consideration the length of time our volunteer SAG motos are out on the course. Due to this, we will be STRICTLY enforcing cutoff times for Aid Stations, Food Truck, and the Finish Line.
All Riders must cross the timing mat at the start of the ride and completion of their chosen route in order to receive an accurate ride time The Ride Organizers will do their best to ensure that all riders who start the ride are accounted for at the end, but it is the responsibility of the rider to make sure they either cross the mat or check in at the registration table at the completion of the ride.

PINE GROVE FURNACE AID STATION CUTOFF - 1:30PM

Route markings for each course will be designated using signs and colored arrows ( specific to each route). Route marking colors will be displayed at the route start.
GPS files for each route along with cue sheets will be available through an online link. It's strongly recommended that you use a GPS bike computer and load the files as course markings may be inaccurate due to other forces of nature (and humans).
If you need to coordinate an earlier start time, please contact us - you will not be eligible for race placing but we can still give you a time.
This is a rain or shine event and no refunds will be given, so please plan accordingly when signing up by using the BikeReg insurance if you have an eligible reason for a refund.
Participants will receive with their paid entry a meal voucher and beer vouchers good towards a post ride lunch and 2 beers (ages 21+ ONLY) at a Food Truck that will be on hand that day. Upon completion of their route, participants must take their registration ticket to the registration table to receive their meal/beer voucher. Beer is being provided by Michaux Brewing Co!
