The 100K route will take you through the quiet country around Ione, passing Lake Camanche and Pardee Reservoir, through quiet little towns like Buena Vista, Campo Seco, and Valley Springs. The route will provide a challenge for most riders with plenty of "rollers" through the green wooded foothills in all their spring glory. There is approximately 4150' of climbing on the 100K route. The 50K route is a scaled down version of the 100K with less climbing and fewer miles but just as much scenery. The 50K will provide a challenge to those riders looking for a shorter option than a metric century. There is approximately 1505' of climbing on the 50K route.
