Annie Londonderry wasn't the only one who pushed the
limits of time and distance on her two-wheeler. In the
late 1890s, several women took the concept of riding a
century-100 miles-to the extreme by peeling off two,
three, four, or more centuries in a row. Perhaps the
greatest female century rider performed outside the
spotlight. Dora Rinehart's exploits hardly ever were
reported beyond the western United States, where the
Colorado native earned the title "America's Greatest
Cyclienne." Rinehart took up the bicycle to regain her
strength after suffering scarlet fever. She started with
short rides, but quickly built up her endurance. In 1896
alone, she pedaled 17,196 miles, more than any other
woman in the United States. That included stretches of
10 days in July and 20 days from October 31 through
November 19 when she rode a century every day.
O Dora Rinehart earned the title of "America's
Greatest Cyclienne" in the western part of the United
States
The fact that Dora Rinehart pedaled more miles in
1896 than other woman proves she was the best
Riding one hundred miles was known as "riding a
century" and was as grueling and unforgiving as it
sounds.
It was unfair that the efforts of Annie Londonderry
were more widely known than those of Dora
Rinehart
