If you are familiar with the area and have a favorite route drop me a line and you may get to lead it. We will stay at the Lighthouse lodge and Suites @ 1150 Lighthouse Ave Pacific Grove Ca 93950 (1-800-858-1249).

They have set 15 rooms aside for us and will hold them open until 30 day prior to our arrival which is April 12 2010. After that they will go back into the inventory.

Long Elev: 4300, Med Elev: 2000, Short Elev: Flat The rides satisfy the three biggest desires of century riders - the challenge, the scenery and the food. We combine tough climbs in the lush and fertile springtime with plenty of fresh fruits, fresh baked goodies (like streusel-date bars, banana-walnut bread, raspberry granola bars and raisin-nut energy bars) and a lunch spread that makes other century organizers scratch their heads. The rides include a dinner at the finish. This is a paid event. do the Wildflower and return to Sacramento on Monday. Everyone is on their own for lodging and food. Register ASAP at www.chicovelo.org.

Afternoon weather is usually warm at this time of year, but bring layers since it will be cool in the morning and that famous fog could show up at any time. Stores and water are available on the route and we'll stop for lunch in Fairfax. Elev - app. 6,000 .

Sonoma County is famous for its scenic back road cycling, and this century shows you why. In addition to visiting many of the region's premier vineyards, the route winds through redwoods, apple orchards, and shady broadleaf forest. It meanders across meadows sprinkled with wildflowers and climbs over hillsides dotted with eucalyptus, bay, and oak. The 200-K route even visits the magnificent, rugged Sonoma coast. Depending on your route, you'll cross the beautiful Russian River as many as six times. Again, depending on your route, you might pass through as many as seven different vineyard appellations: Russian River Valley, Green Valley, Sonoma Coast, Northern Sonoma, Dry Creek Valley, Alexander Valley, and Chalk Hill.
