Hey there---I'm looking at doing a century on my fixed gear and was wondering what people thought about century rides in Northern California in the May-June window?

I saw the I Care Classic (ICC) webpage says that its relatively flat----but has anyone done it, how flat is it?

Any advice, ideas welcomed.

There's the mexico 50... something to ensenada.

Lucklust is riding his Bianchi Pista in the AIDS Lifecycle, 500+ miles. That's sounds challenging and fun.

It's going to be a blast! jeremyb, I've started riding a 50 mile loop every Wednesday and a 100+ every Sunday. If you don't mind riding solo, there are some incredible rides out here in Marin County. I don't know much about organized centuries, but if you're ever in Marin, let me know, and I can tell you of a thousand different rides, from flat to rolling to thigh-burning-knee-killing-sadomasochistic torture-fests.

i'd like to try that, but it's a long ride from NY to cal.

The Wine Country Century on May 1st might be a good bet, some people ride it fixed, but have only done it geared myself. It is very well supported and organized, and details are at https://srcc.com/
