10-mile/Trail: This route
starts at Sonoma Wine Company in Graton, and is an
out-and-back ride along the carfree West County Regional
Trail. It is well protected and as flat as it gets in the
Bay Area – the setting ideal for many riders. After
finishing your ride you are invited to join in the
celebration at Trentadue Winery where lunch, a massage,
and wine tasting await you. |
| |
|
 |
25-mile: This route
starts at Trentadue Winery. It has been planned to
be a thoroughly enjoyable ride and takes into account the
extra safety considerations for hand cyclists. In the
second half of the ride you will share the road with the
metric and century riders cheering each other on. Lunch, a
massage, and wine tasting await you at Trentadue Winery. |

65-mile/100 km: The
metric century route departs from Trentadue Winery, and
heads over to West Dry Creek. You'll shoot south down
Westside Road, pausing at the Wohler Bridge rest stop if
you choose. You'll head west on River Rd. to Guerneville,
where you'll turn left to pedal Green Valley and Mays
Canyon roads, narrow, beautiful, wooded routes with two
steep, short climbs. Your second rest stop is in Graton.
From Graton, you’ll have the option to share part of the
route with the Trail Riders or keep to the roads as you
head back to the north. Your third stop is again at Wohler
Bridge. Then it's up to West Dry Creek Road, a
little-traveled, gorgeous route through some of the finest
vineyards in the world, returning home over Lambert Bridge
and Lytton Springs Road. Lunch, a massage, and wine
tasting await you at Trentadue Winery. |

100-mile: The century
ride leaves Trentadue Winery and also heads over to West
Dry Creek. You'll shoot south down Westside Road, pausing
at the Wohler Bridge rest stop if you choose. You'll head
west on River Road to Guerneville, where you'll turn left
to pedal Green Valley and Mays Canyon roads, narrow,
beautiful, wooded routes with two steep, short climbs.
Your second rest stop is in Graton. Next you make a
one-mile climb into Occidental, and then it's a climb up
Coleman Valley Rd. (about 1,000 feet over four+ miles),
another spectacular road with very little traffic. Once at
the top, your serious climbing is finished for the day.
Now you'll revel in several miles of perfect rollers with
stunning views out over the Pacific Ocean. Then you'll
plunge down to the Pacific Coast Highway, turn north, roll
up to the mouth of the Russian River. After your third
rest at Duncans Mills, you've got about 40 miles of
rolling country to go. You'll ride up the Russian River
Valley and then turn north to travel up the west side of
the Dry Creek region, turning right on Lytton Springs road
and returning to Trentadue Winery, where your lunch,
massage, and wine tasting await you. |
