Ride California
Explore the west by bicycle
June 23rd-30th, 2007
20 Riders Max!!!

Push off, click in, and open yourself to a panorama of greens, blues, and yellows. Nature is yours to discover during this 7-day ride through the Golden State. It is not for the fainthearted, but for those who crave spinning wheels beneath them to experience nature's perfection.

The first day you will visit Lassen National Park and explore the molded hills created from Mt Lassen's eruption in 1915. Now the world's largest dormant volcano, its lasting presence is felt through the hydrothermal lands of bubbling mud pots and hissing fumaroles. Mt Shasta will dominate your northern horizon, but not to intimidate the true cyclist. Conquer the 11-mile climb to the Bunny Flat Trailhead (6,860 ft.) and you will be rewarded with a breathtaking view of the cascade range.

Klamath River will then become your guide, revealing its sacred treasures of bald eagles and wild horses. (You may even see the elusive Bigfoot while riding on the Bigfoot Scenic Byway.) Ride California is truly complete with the glacially chiseled peaks of the Marble Mountain Wilderness and Trinity Alps, peaks that rival the beauty of their European counterparts. This 488-mile loop is the perfect escape for the passionate cyclist. Breath crisp air, pedal with undisturbed quietness, and experience northern California's surreal beauty.
