What is the HHH?

51 Years of Ohio's Flattest Century

The Hancock Horizontal Hundred has been a Midwest cycling tradition since 1975. What started as a small group ride has grown into one of Ohio's most beloved cycling events.

Known for smooth roads, minimal elevation, and a welcoming atmosphere, the HHH is built for riders of all levels—from families on their first group ride to seasoned cyclists chasing a century.

Hosted by Making Miles Matter Inc., a nonprofit focused on cycling access, safety, and community wellness throughout Northwest Ohio.

New to 2026 - Findlay Further Fondo!

The Findlay Further Fondo is a spring ride to kick off the cycling season. We'll roll out from False Chord Brewing in Findlay, cruise through the flat farmland of Northwest Ohio to Arlyn's Good Beer in Bowling Green, then turn around and head back.

It's not a race—just a good excuse to get some early-season miles in with friends, cold drinks waiting at both ends, and a reason to shake off the winter rust.
