Leavenworth County ? Motorists are asked to share the road this weekend as about 100 bicyclists make their way through seven area cities.

The Leavenworth Bicycle Club will kick off the 25th annual Buffalo Bill Century Ride at 8 a.m. Sunday in downtown Leavenworth. Deemed the “Tour of the Seven Cities,” riders will have five routes to choose from that go through the downtowns of Leavenworth, Lansing, Basehor, De Soto, Eudora, Tonganoxie and Easton.

Ride coordinator Baron Powell said the event is not a race. The shortest loop, about 8 miles, is something the beginners will enjoy, he said, while the most advanced riders may choose to take on the full 101-mile century loop. Most riders, however, will choose one of the middle-of-the-road routes, which include 33 miles, 59 miles and 81 miles.

“When you do the 101-mile loop, you truly get a sense of what Leavenworth County is all about,” Powell said.

While the pre-registration deadline has already passed, riders can still join by registering between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m. Sunday at the pavilion across from the C.W. Parker Carousel Museum at Esplanade and Cherokee streets in Leavenworth. A $30 fee will be charged unless riders choose the short loop, which will be $15.
