Priority Registration Opens at 1 a.m. on February 7th!

Get ready for the bike ride you’ll remember! The first-ever I Bike Sonoma County Century, presented by Whole Foods Market, is set for June 22, 2013, and it’s the ride event you won’t want to miss this year.


Benefitting Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition, the I Bike Sonoma County Century offers something for everyone, so gather your friends and family, choose from four beautiful routes, and prepare to experience awesome riding and fabulous food in gorgeous Sonoma County!


By riding the I Bike Sonoma County Century, you help Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition (SCBC) make Sonoma County the best place to ride a bike. Since 2001, SCBC has promoted bicycling for transportation and recreation; its work helps make Sonoma County a safer, more accessible place for everyone – of any age or experience level – to enjoy the health benefits and fun of riding a bike.


How it works:
TMX-SS-OverWhite


At registration, you can choose to pay a flat fee and just ride.


Or, you can become a Fundraiser Super Hero: these riders pay a dramatically reduced fee and agree to raise a minimum amount of $250 in support of Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition.


The top 11 fundraisers will receive a snazzy “Traffic Master” jersey from Sebastopol-based Elevengear.


The top overall fundraiser wins a brand-new Novara road bike from REI!


In addition to a going on a great ride for your favorite bicycling cause, all registered riders receive a goodie bag, and get to enjoy rest stops at Whole Foods Market locations throughout Sonoma County, as well as a post-ride festival and lunch at Whole Foods Market Coddingtown.
