Come on up to WA. We have some really amazing centuries up here. Obliteride, while one of my favorites, would be the one I'd suggest skipping, since the first and last 10 miles are on crappy Seattle streets. But Flying Wheels, RSVP, and really anything else in the Pacific Northwest is fantastic.
Also, say hi to Hacienda Heights for me. I got married at the Hsi Lai temple there!
