About The Ride

Established in 2003, the Hot Hundred is Tuscaloosa’s century ride. We offer 6 different distance options to cater to cyclists of all ability levels.

Funds raised via sponsorships and registration fees support the Tuscaloosa Mental Health Alliance, a nonprofit organization assisting those affected by mental health issues through education, awareness, support, and collaboration.

Your registration fees have helped and will continue to help provide needed assistance to individuals facing the challenges of mental illness in our community, as well as the agencies working to serve those with mental health needs. Some of the numerous projects and support provided includes:

Transportation assistance
Medication assistance
Mental health first aid training
West Alabama Suicide Symposium

The Rest Stops

Black Warrior

The first (and last) rest stop is supported by the wonderful ladies of Druid City Bicycle Club. Near the intersection of Black Warrior Rd and Highway 11, rest assured you will be taken care of by some of the best.

Romulus Fire Station

The Romulus volunteer fire fighters are huge supporters of cycling here in the Tuscaloosa area. They always have their own prepared food and lots of ice and fluids that really hit the spot when you need it. They are located at the intersection of Romulus Rd and Gainsville Rd.

Cornelius Church

A group of local physicians and cyclists have been running this fan favorite stop for years. Not only will you get the rest and fluids you need to keep going, but they have home made tomato sandwiches that are always a huge hit!

Bethel Church

Bethel Church is a rest stop that couldn’t come soon enough! This rest stop is supported by the Tuscaloosa Mountain Flyers, a local middle and high school mountain bike team. They are on their toes and ready to help you with your bike, ice cold towels, or anything else you need.

Mt Olive Fire Station

The Mt Olive Fire Station is a new addition in 2024. This is the only stop exclusive to the ultra route, and really hits the spot when you need it most!

What Past Riders Have Said

The Hot Hundred continues to be one of the best rides in the country. I look forward to next year!
Rest stops were great! LOVED the ice cold towels in ice chests!
The swag bag was one of the best I’ve received and was probably the best part of the event.
The course was excellent. Rest stops had plenty of food and the volunteers were awesome and more than helpful with anything you needed. First class event.
I love the ride and the cause, will be back again next year! Thanks for a job well done!
Every single rest stop was excellent. I ended up skipping a couple of them but they were well stocked and the volunteers were all very helpful and attentive.
Rest stops and SAG were great. I used both and the volunteers were top notch!
