TnT Cycling Club, a local Burlington County bike club, in partnership with Spellbound Community Giving Corp (Mount Holly) and Mount Holly Township will be hosting their Annual Spellbound Century road bike event on Saturday, July 25 in Mount Holly, NJ. This year’s ride starts and ends in historic Mount Holly, NJ, the county seat of Burlington County, and takes riders through a variety of local historic towns and by farms and scenic areas.
The Spellbound Century, the area’s largest summer cycling event, has become the premier charity summer event in South Jersey – with more than $600,000 raised to support a variety of local nonprofit organizations, projects and community initiatives over the past eleven years. All proceeds from this year’s event will benefit Mount Holly’s John Brainerd Elementary School, Main Street Mount Holly and the Cherry Hill Free Clinic.
In 2026, riders have the option of participating in a family-friendly 25-mile course or more challenging 45-, 63- or 100-mile ride. Check-in and start times* vary for each of the routes:
- 100-mile century ride – check-in begins at 6 a.m., ride start between 6:30-6:45 a.m.

*NOTE: All check-in and start times are subject to change – event organizers may adjust start times earlier to avoid intense mid-day summer heat. Riders will be provided with a formal itinerary prior to the event day, which will list finalized/set check-in and start times.
All of this year’s routes begin and end in Downtown Mount Holly at the MHMUA Parking Lot – located at 1 Park Drive, at the corner of Washington Street and Park Drive by the Mount Holly Township Municipal Building (GPS Address: Burlington County Court House, Rancocas Rd, Mount Holly, NJ 08060). Participants are expected to have completed their rides and returned to Downtown Mount Holly by 4 p.m. NOTE: Riders can take advantage of access to ample free public parking spaces located off Rancocas Road.
To highlight local, “Jersey Fresh” produce and farmers, the event will also have fully-stocked planned rest stops at local winery and farm markets along the routes where riders may purchase their own wine fruits, vegetables, pies or other goods and have their purchases transported to the end of the ride for pick-up. This year’s stops include: Specca Pick Your Own Farm (Bordentown), Mr. McGregor’s Garden Farm (Jobstown), Rancocas Creek Farm (Southampton) and Laurita’s Winery (New Egypt).
At the completion of the ride, riders will also enjoy a post-ride celebration that includes a complimentary pizza and hot dog lunch, a pint of beer from Spellbound Brewing and water ice from Vincent’s Homemade Ice Cream. Additionally, riders can enjoy a live performance by Modern Mojo and a variety of local vendors and merchants with goods for purchase at the celebration.
