From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hotter’N Hell Hundred is an annual bicycle ride in Wichita Falls, Texas. It is held each year in August and includes professional as well as amateur riders. The professional racers ride a 100-mile road race, as well as time trials and criterium. For the amateur riders, there are road routes of 100 miles, 100K, 50 miles, 25 miles, and 10K. The amateur routes are also open for roller blading.

The race was first held in 1982 as part of the Wichita Falls Centennial Celebration, thus the description: one hundred miles (i.e., century) in one hundred degree Fahrenheit weather (the race is held in August, which is usually the hottest month of the year in Texas and especially in Wichita Falls), to celebrate the city's 100th anniversary.

Hotter'N Hell Hundred is the largest sanctioned century bicycle ride in the US.
