There's no ride quite like the Mt. Shasta Summit Century. Challenging climbs. Breathtaking views. Lightly trafficked, rural roads. And a cloverleaf route that encourages you to test yourself -- you're never more than a downhill away from home. Four routes await you -- including the Super Century that's tougher than the famed Markleeville Death Ride (it's like a Tour de France mountain stage). Rides of 30, 60 and 100 miles are also available. Ready for a challenge? Held in the stunning alpine environment surrounding 14,162' Mount Shasta, the Mount Shasta Summit Century is an endless parade of breathtaking views – and a challenging set of climbs. A cloverleaf route allows you to really challenge yourself; if you can't climb another foot, you simply turn around -- the finish is only a downhill away. Our 135 mile Super Century features 16,500' of climbing. It's tougher than the Death Ride – but a lot prettier, and a better first ride for those who are new to hilly, mega-century rides. Our Summit Century offers 10,500' of climbing. It's the perfect hilly century for those ready to move beyond standard centuries. Our Metric Century is moderately hilly – only 4,200' of climbing in 58 miles. All the views at less than half the suffering! Our Half Metric is for novices; 30
miles and 2100' of climbing. Pretty and easy. Check out our "Training Tips" section!

2008 Event Registration Now Open at Active.com Over 700 riders hit the roads in the 2007 edition of the Mount Shasta Summit Century. I don't have final registration numbers yet, but the final online numbers tell us that the Super Century (135 miles) was by far the most popular ride -- half again as large as the ridership in our century event. We'll post pictures and more commentary as it happens.
