The Ninth Annual Iron Furnace Fifty was held on May 11, 2019. The weather was perfect and the attendance was record breaking. There were 340 riders -- a 13% increase over 2018. Iron Furnace Fifty is an annual Spring bike ride through the beautiful rural Lower Eastern Shore of Maryland organized by the Rotary Club of Snow Hill and Furnace Town Living Heritage Village. There are 50K, 50 Mile, and 100K routes on rural Maryland roads among woods and farms. All routes begin and end at Furnace Town.
