Major Taylor South Carolina SEASON OPENER

Are you ready for an epic season opener? Our annual ride through the scenic back roads of Hopkins and Eastover is back, leading you to a legendary cookout at Congaree National Park! This isn't your typical ride – forget the hills of yesteryear; we're bringing you the flattest, smoothest paths in Columbia with two exhilarating route options. Choose your challenge: the "Flat 'Fiddy'" for speed demons craving a 47.65-mile thrill, or the "Flat 'Thirty'" for a more accessible 28.72-mile adventure, each with full support, rest stops, and police escorts for your safety. After the ride, let loose at our cookout extravaganza – indulge in fantastic food, jam to great music, and be ready for a surprise that'll make it unforgettable. Check-in starts bright and early at 8:00 AM, so sign up, buckle up your helmet, and let's create some memories together! Safety first – waivers are a must. Hotel recommendations provided to ensure your comfort. Route details coming soon – stay tuned!
