Here are the route descriptions for 2010.
60K
(34.6 mi, 978 ft)
If you have not ridden much over the winter, we recommend this flat route through Gilroy and a big loop out past Uvas and Chesbro Reservoirs. This route makes a good family ride.
100K (63.7 mi, 2241 ft)
With the 100K, you do much of your climbing in the morning, as you start with a climb to Gilroy Hot Springs. After a descent down Cañada Road, you will cross the valley and loop around Uvas and Chesbro Reservoirs before returning to Gavilan College.
Hilly 100 Miles (99.2 mi, 6299
ft)
With the 100M, you also begin your ride with a climb up to Gilroy Hot Springs, but that is just the beginning. After descending down Canada Road, you will head north to do the challenging climb up Thomas Grade and Dunne Ave to the summit at Henry Coe State Park Headquarters. Then you descend back down the same roads and head northwest to Bailey and up to Calero County Park. By this time the northern winds should have picked up to push you south past Chesbro Reservoir and on to Gavilan College.
Hilly 200K (120.6 mi, 7671 ft)
If the 100M is just not enough for you, we have a new option for 2010 – a scenic ride out to New Almaden and a climb up to the summit of Hicks Road, before retracing your route back to Calero County Park to rejoin the 100M.
