Additional Information
The I Care Classic Bicycle Tour presents…
The South County Century
& Fun Ride 2010
Saturday, May 15, 2010
Morgan Hill, California
The I Care Classic changed the starting point four years ago to Morgan Hill, just off Cochrane
Road at Monterey Highway and Madrone Parkway. We avoided the traffic of San Jose
allowing the riders to take advantage of the more scenic south county. The routes are all
very scenic and especially beautiful in the Spring. Those that have ridden before know
that the
Almaden Super Lions are wonderful hosts and always help make the ride a
memorable and enjoyable event.
By Riders for Riders
The
Almaden Super Lions Club, organizers of the 19th Annual I Care Classic, are riders too!
We know the value and character of a good ride. All routes are well marked with great rest
and water stops. There is full SAG support throughout the ride. A wide variety of food and
beverages are available before, during, and after the ride.
Location & Directions
Again this year, thanks to the wonderful folks at Paramit Corporation, the I Care Classic’s
registration, start, finish, and barbeque lunch will be at the
Paramit Corporation Campus at
18735 Madrone Parkway in Morgan Hill. To get to Paramit, take Hwy 101 and exit at
Cochrane Blvd. in Morgan Hill. Go west to Monterey Highway and turn right. The Paramit
campus will be on your right, just before Madrone Parkway.
