Registration is now closed. We won't have registration later in the week or on race day. We have 400 riders (300 last year) tackling the 200-miler and 390 (300 last year) taking on the 100-miler. As a thank you for supporting the race, we will again freeze entry fees next year. They will be the same as 2025. We're grateful that you are choosing to race with us and we'll do everything we can to make it a great day on the bike! See you Saturday (or Friday for 6-8 pm packet pickup for the 100 and pre-race meeting for the 200)!

Today (Monday) is the last day to register for the Coast to Coast 204-miler or the Coast Loop 100-miler. Registration closes for good at midnight. We will NOT have registration the rest of the week or on race day. If you are a weather watcher, the forecast for Saturday looks really good... but no guarantees of course!

Decisions, decisions...

Happy Father's Day!

If you're watching the weather before signing up for the race, as of today it looks really good. This forecast is for Cadillac, midway through the 200 miler and not too far from the 100. Moderate temps, low humidity, some clouds, light winds and some forecasts say out of the east (say wha??), minimal rain. Things could change, but looking good as of now! Registration closes for good on Monday at midnight. No registration after that. www.micoasttocoast.com
