| Just thought I would let you know we had out first non UK route added today. The route is based in California and can be found here :
Solvang Double Century Cycle Route
This is great news as hopefully we start to collect routes that people can use when on holiday. If you have any routes in countries abroad then please add them as it will be a great resource for other cyclists.

| If its 193 miles, its not really a 'double century'.
Nit picking aside, I think this ride is a qualification ride to earn the RUSA ( Randonneurs USA ) California "Triple Crown". That's three double-centuries in one season.
It is their equivalent to the Randonneur 1000 award from AUK. 1 x 100km, 3 x 200km and 1 x 300km.

| Yeah, very true. The distance calculation is only approximate however. Would be great to do some cycling in California I think, lots of nice weather!!
