If you register online, you will receive email confirmation from the online system.
If you register by mail, you can include a self-addressed-stamped post card and we'll mail it back. In addition, we'll put your name and zip code on this more or less current list of mail-in registrants.

The registration fee includes route sheets, great food, special edition GPC Century socks and, upon request, a wonderful Grizzly Peak Century patch!
The ride is limited to 1000 riders. The registration deadline is April 14. Applications postmarked after the 14th must include the $10 late fee. Applications received after the 1000th rider will be returned.
Registration is now open. You can register online with payment through PayPal. You can use your PayPal account and payment options if you have one, or you can pay with a credit or debit card through PayPal without registering with PayPal if you prefer. Save a stamp and register online at no extra charge.
If you don't wish to register online, you can fill out and print the GPC registration form. Sign it where required and mail it with your check to the address on the form. Please fill out the form in your browser before printing.
Note that filling out the form before printing requires a fairly recent version of
Adobe reader.

If you don't have a printer and don't want to register online, the application form is also available by snail mail. You may request one by e-mailing your snail mail address to century@GrizzlyPeakCyclists.org with subject "Flyer Request", or phone the Century Chair at (925)631-0602 between 8am and 8pm and provide the same information.
Is there a waiting list? Can I get a refund?
We maintain no waiting lists once we sell out (which will happen very soon, if it hasn't happened already). We do not give refunds - the Grizzly Peak Century goes on, rain or shine!
So, if you are unable to make it to the Century, we invite you to give, sell or trade your Grizzly Peak Century entry to someone else. You make the arrangements, but you need to tell us, and all you need is this form. (This gives us the personal information for the replacement rider, and her/his signature on the Release.) You don't need to tell us in advance (but if you send a note to the century registrar, we'll make a note to look for your replacement). There is no charge for the transfer. The transferee just needs to bring the completed form to the Century.
