The annual event is set for Saturday, July 26, at 7 a.m. at Parker-Haun Park.

Druid City Bicycle Club President Jerad Tate told Patch that riders from several states, along with two from Denmark, will ride through the city limits into Tuscaloosa County.

Participants will have the option to choose one of five routes ranging in length from 24 miles to 102 miles.

This year's installment marks the event's 23rd year and Tate said it is arguably the longest-running endurance event in Tuscaloosa.

The Hot Hundred was established in 2003 as Tuscaloosa’s century ride, with the goal of raising funds through sponsorships and registration fees to support United Cerebral Palsy (UCP) of West Alabama and its myriad programs.
