Kick Off Century

Start the year with a century! Wheelmen believe that if you ride a century on the first day of the year, you are ready for a great year of cycling. So, for the 19th year, we offer a January 1st century or metric century. Take your choice of 100 miles or 62 miles.

The full century is pretty easy as centuries go just up the coast to Ventura and return. No hills bigger than those along PCH. The metric century follows the full century up the coast to Camarillo where it stops
for brunch or lunch. It then simply turns around and retraces the route back down the coast to the start.

There is no support on these centuries, but none is really needed. January 1st is a fairly quiet day on PCH. Everyone is watching football or has a hangover. Kick the year off with a century and you won’t regret it.
