When athlete Kelly Brush was a sophomore at Middlebury College in 2006, she was involved in a ski racing accident that left her paralyzed. Brush’s teammates rallied around her, launching the Kelly Brush Century Ride to outfit her with an adaptive monoski and a handcycle. Now in its 11th year, the ride draws bikers and handcyclists from across the United States and Canada to traverse Vermont’s scenic terrain and boost the Kelly Brush Foundation’s mission to promote adaptive sports and ski racing safety. This Saturday, more than 700 participants are expected to pedal by hand and foot on gently rolling courses ranging from 25 to 100 miles. Let’s roll!
