Marin Century Registration is Open!

[David Goldsmith]

At https://marincentury.webconnex.com/2015

I signed up for the traditional century but might be interested in the
Mt. Tam Century if I can get some climbing in before then and if some
other folks are doing it.

Who else is in?

David

[Jacky Schuler]

Still considering the double but the Shasta Super Century is the same weekend. Decisions, decisions...

It's the last day to register before paying extra, so I just did that. I'm registered for the traditional century but could be persuaded to the do the Tam or the double metric instead.

Just registered as well for the traditional century. I was thinking of the other two and then Skyline yesterday said that was a bad idea.

[Cordelia Link]

The Marin Century is 4 months away, doing skyline a couple times a week between now and then seems like a good training program to me :)

[Ted Lesher_]

Also just registered, thanks for the heads up!

There's always a nice SF2G contingent at Marin Century, let's have it again this year (assuming SF2G alumni are welcome).

[aamir ali]

I did the Traditional century last year with the SF2G crew it was a lot of fun. This year, I will probably do the Mt. Tam Century as a different challenge.

[Jason Terk]

+1 - just signed up for the traditional century

That must be a typo -- I'm sure you meant the double.

[David Goldsmith]

Why? http://www.marincyclists.com/Route#MtTamCentury

[Yvonne Yip]

I signed up for the Mt. Tam century. It's the weekend after the SF marathon though, so it's going to be an interesting time...

[Peter Colijn]

Anyone doing the double? SF2G crew was a bit thin last year (just me & Warren, iirc).

[Christine Ryan]

I'm still thinking about Mt Shasta...

I pretty much came to the conclusion that logistics for Shasta are not good for me this year, so I just reg’d for the Marin 200K. Will try for a sub-8hr elapsed time again this year (nearly nailed that 2 years ago, but a mechanical forced us to linger at Valley Ford longer than we liked, and I finished in 8:07).

[Patrick Lea]

Is anyone doing either the metric or half metric. I was trying to convince my wife she should ride it.

@David: Jacky is just giving me a hard time for choosing an "easier" ride than the double.

I'm considering the double but also pondering Shasta. I'm also thinking of doing STP. It's sold out but I am in touch about volunteering in exchange for an entry.

[Christine Windsor]

Patrick, depending on how my metric century goes in May I'll sign up for the half or _maybe_ the full metric. I think it will be a hilly ride right? 

[R Samuel Klatchko]

Signed up for the traditional century and thinking of doing the Julien Silland variation (adding on Valley Ford -> Wild Flour Bakery out & back).

[Zoe Hoster]

+hopefully

this was super fun last year. hopefully chipotle will sponsor again .. I almost made back my entry fee in free burrito coupons ..

[Dan Sully]

My plans have changed, so +1 for the 200k

I'm also doing StP the weekend before.

Sent from my iPhone

[Cordelia Link]

Wait StP is the weekend before? I thought it was more like a month before...

[Jason Terk]

Grr, I just realized I have something else going on Aug. 1 -1; if anyone wants to do this ride I'll transfer my registration at yesterday's price ;)

 

-Jason

[Dan Sully]

Oh yeah. I can't read a calendar.

<dsully> please describe web 2.0 to me in 2 sentences or less.
<jwb> you make all the content. they keep all the revenue.

[Peter Colijn]

Just signed up for the Mt. Tam double, prices go up again at midnight...

[Christine Windsor]

Signed up for the metric century. Looks like climbing practice is in my future. 

[Kurt Wallace Martin]

A fun little project to create a more-or-less epic ride out of one’s doorstep. I’m picturing hills in SF plus what, planet of the apes?

[Jason Terk]

If anyone else is considering the Marin Century I have a "Traditional Century" registration I can't use. It's yours for $95.85 (vs. $109.99 today).

5k in 40 on mostly dirt isn't hard to do out of SF: https://www.strava.com/activities/276213022

or, if you can do a point-to-point: https://www.strava.com/activities/248829870

[Ted Ketai]

Or, other similar point-to-point options: 

https://www.strava.com/activities/333185

https://www.strava.com/activities/465328

Also possible out of Oakland: https://www.strava.com/activities/8902926  .. can also be combined with these options https://www.strava.com/activities/79402

[vasek1]

+1 for the traditional century!

[Kurt Wallace Martin]

Ted has all the datas!

[Bret Lobree]

You can easily do 5k in <40 mi in SF...though it's not as dirty as Marin. I see Sutro, TP, Davidson via dirt McLaren and DSB (among others). PotA is too far away to make it back in under 40. 

fwiw, here's my best ft/mi ride at 194.3 3389ft/17.4mi:

http://app.strava.com/activities/68106349

[Ted Ketai]

If you're looking for pure elevation per mile, you can't do much better than Skeggs, btw (though it's not out your front door)

http://app.strava.com/activities/10269152

[Kurt Wallace Martin]

Yeah, this makes me want to do bayview park, san bruno, mcLaren, bernal, diamond, davidson, TP, Sutro, buena vista in that order. I’m sure I don’t know half of the dirty connectors though.

[Bret Lobree]

SF Flow?

[Ted Ketai]

Lots of legal SF dirt from SFUR ride a couple weeks ago: https://www.strava.com/activities/306713865

I can't find the SF Flow route. May have been pre-strava?

[Bret Lobree]

Is this it? 

https://www.strava.com/activities/8471

Oh my! Look at that activity number...

[Ted Ketai]

Apparently.. 

That could have been the second year of it possibly.. 

[Maxence Nachury]

Have those “no bicycle” signs gone down? Last time I was at McLaren (~ a month ago) they were still there. Rumor has it that some riders were ticketed in McLaren too. 

[Ted Ketai]

I'm pretty sure they've come down at Sutro, not sure about McLaren. 

[Lorne Kligerman]

+1 to the 200km

Side comment... under the 'how'd you hear about us' section you can choose to select from a list of cycling groups/clubs, but SF2G isn't listed!

[Nick Burton]

Signed up for the double (but not planning to cycle there ....or back.) It would be good to have some company as I'm solo at the moment.
