Lilac Century Bike Ride

This 25th-year ride offers a variety of fun, scenic and challenging tours for every level of rider. 

Five tour lengths support all levels of riders and everyone will enjoy a free baked-potato feed at the finish. 

The 100-mile Ride and part of our 50-mile ride will travel along the west side of the Spokane River, through the Long Lake Area, and through the West Plains of Spokane. The 66-mile route follows the Centennial Trail to Nine Mile, around Long Lake, back to Nine Mile and then returns to SFCC.

The 15 and 22 mile rides have been redesigned to be more family friendly. The new courses are nearly flat and the 15 mile course avoids road traffic altogether! Both routes follow the newly paved "Fish Lake Trail" from the trailhead at the foot of Sunset Hill out to Scribner Rd and back. The 22 mile route is the same as the 15 mile route with the addition of a 3.2 mile section from SFCC along Government Way past the cemeteries.

Tri-athletes may register for a Bike/Run “Brick” transition to a 5 K run from a secure bike holding area.
