History
Whether you’re a history buff or a cycling enthusiast, the Bluff City Blues Ride is a true Memphis staple.
What began in the '70s as a grassroots social ride through the scenic stretches of North Memphis and Shelby Forest evolved into the "Fall Classic" by the mid-80s. By the 1990s, the event officially found its identity, adopting the iconic name we know today: the Bluff City Blues 100. It’s more than just a ride; it’s decades of Memphis cycling tradition packed into one unforgettable journey.
