2012 Shorebird Metric Century
Arthur W. Perdue Stadium
June 2, 2012
7:00 - 9:00 AM Registration/Check In with Show & Go Start
Welcome to the SHOREBIRDS METRIC CENTURY. Our 65/35/15 mile bike routes take advantage of the lightly traveled scenic roads of the Eastern Shore of Maryland, generally southeast of Salisbury, Maryland. This ride is held in honor and in memory of all who have been touched by cancer. Make a weekend of your trip to the Shore and take advantage of the many local events (Easton to Ocean City) taking place on this holiday weekend after your ride!


Starting at the Arthur W. Perdue Stadium, located on Rt. 50 and Hobbs Road, the ride will traverse the roads of the Pocomoke Forest on a figure eight route with two rest stops at the restored historical village of Furnace Town. This former thriving iron producing community of about 5,000 people, site of the Nassawango Iron Furnace, is sure to interest many of our riders. Participants who choose to ride the 35-mile route can tour the restored historic site, for a small fee, while others complete the next section of the ride. The metric route continues with a rest stop at Buck’s Country Store and again at Furnace Town after 49 miles for the final rest stop. The 35-mile route and the metric route finish together at Perdue Stadium.
Finish Line Dedications:
Thank you for helping us dedicate the FINISH LINE to our family members, friends, and loved ones who are cancer survivors or former cancer patients.
