Taco Bell Century 2026

The Basics

100 miles, 10 Taco Bells, all from the comfort of your saddle.

At each stop, you refuel with Taco Bell — the official fuel of questionable athletic decisions. Whether you're a seasoned century rider or just here for the chalupas, this ride is for you.

Start time is 7:00 AM. Entry is free but donations to our charity partner are reccomended. Bring your bike and your appetite.
