THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO SEE THE BEST CYCLING THAT SOLANO, NAPA AND YOLO COUNTIES HAVE TO OFFER!

This classic 100 mile ride is a beauty and goes along much of Stage 3 of the Tour De California route. Overall the challenge of this ride is difficult and unmatched in the area. The beautiful scenery that comes with the climbs and vineyards is also unmatched in the area. The climb up Mt George goes from almost Sea Level, up to 1,200 FT, then back to sea level via one of the best descents around. And that’s all before Lunch! After, we take you to ride through Napa and onto what the pro’s ride in Stage 3 of the Tour De California that passes by Lake Berryessa . Entry Includes 5 catered rest stops and a mexican food dinner at the high school.

RIDE THROUGH LAKE BERRYESSA , NAPA VINYARDS, THE GLORY HOLE AND THE ONCE THRIVING TOWN OF MONTICELLO .

The 100K (60 miles). Although less challenging than the full century, overall, the challenge of this ride is difficult, with many chances for elevation gains. Like the full Century, this ride also will go along vineyards and picturesque views. It also goes along part of the Stage 3 of the Tour De California course. This is a great way for the Beginner or Intermediate rider to experience all three counties in a challenging ride. With 4 rest stops offering food, water and sports drinks we will make sure to keep you going.

 

- Family Ride 25mi $25.00 Pre Registration (before April 18th) and $30.00 Late Registration (April 19th - May 15)
