28TH Annual
Cannonball's Cycling Team
Metric & Half-Metric Century Charity Ride
June 6/7, 2025
The Cannonballs Cycling Team (CCT) Annual Metric Century is back for its 28th year, and we have new exciting offerings in store! This year we are offering run options for those who aren’t cyclist or simply looking for more of a challenge, and for the first time we’ll incorporate timing.
METRIC & HALF METRIC RIDERS: You read the above correctly, if you are one of our annual riders…this year we will incorporate timing so we don’t have so rely on Strava. Come put your endurance to the test as you conquer the hills throughout Mecklenburg, Gaston and Lincoln Counties while raising funds for local charity. Participates are invited to join individually or as a team. This police escorted ride starts and concludes at White Water Middle School in Charlotte, North Carolina. CCT Metric and Half Metric participants will have SAG support and many options for fuel and nutrition at each rest stop.
