50-mile:
The half century route departs from Trentadue
Winery, and heads over to West Dry Creek. You'll
shoot south down Westside Road, and diverge from the 65 and 100-milers at Wohler Bridge to skip the steep climbs of Green valley and Mays Canyon roads. Your second rest stop is in Graton where you'll rejoin the 65-mile route. 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.
Then it's back up West Dry Creek Road, a
little-traveled, gorgeous route through some of

you at Trentadue Winery. |

Riders or keep to the roads as you head back to

100-mile: The
century ride leaves Trentadue Winery and also
heads over to West Dry Creek. You'll shoot south
down Westside Road, and head west on
River Road. In Guerneville 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
