THE ROUTE: SWEETWATER SPRINGS ROAD
Wind up the hill over Green Valley Rd. for a short stint on Pocket Canyon/Hwy 116 before jumping off at Mays Canyon Rd. We'll crest the hill at the idyllic Porter Bass Biodynamic vineyard and winery before descending through the redwoods and pines down to Guerneville. From there, we'll take a quick right and will head toward Armstrong Woods before hitting Sweetwater Springs Rd. for a climb before a rather steep (and kinda scary - hang on!) descent. Sweetwater is a beautiful ride we haven't done in many a year so we're looking forward to checking out the scenery and new growth since the fires. After Sweetwater, we'll hit the busy but bucolic Westside Rd., over Wohler Bridge, through Forestville and back to Green Valley via the bike trail. We'll probably head off on Ross Rd. to give some space to others on the tight part of the trail before hitting Green Valley Rd. and recommend taking Thomas Rd. at the base of Green Valley to avoid cars. Then.... it's BBQ time. Route link here and RSVP here.

THE BBQ
On the last ride, a few folks (ahem, Tom and Matthew!) had the brilliant idea to BBQ afterward and that is what we are going to do. RSVP's kindly requested, so put your name in here if you're joining in. (This is also our contact list where riders can share their info.)

We'll be practicing standard COVID protocols: We'll be 100% outside for eating and will have plenty of hand sanitizer on hand. If you've been exposed to someone who has tested positive for COVID within 10 days of a ride, or you have symptoms, please plan to join us for the next one. There will be more!

Speaking of more, Tom Inners over at Live Oak Farm in Petaluma has offered to host April 10 and we're looking forward to seeing his farm and to ride some gorgeous roads! More details to come.

——————————————————-
OLD CAZ ROAD + GRAVEL
This route winds us up and over Green Valley Rd. with a short stint on Pocket Canyon Hwy. We'll jump off at Mays Canyon Rd. where we get to crest the hill at the idyllic Porter Bass Biodynamic vineyard and winery, a multi-generational family farm and operation. Then we'll descend through the redwoods and pines down to Guerneville (grab snack or coffee if you please) and head West on River Rd. for just a short mile to Old Caz Rd. From there we'll head Northwest along the the creek and up to the peak where we reach the soul expanding unspoiled majesty of the Wildwood Conservancy. This is where the road ends and the gravel begins all the way down to the creek and up to Cazaero.

ROAD ONLY OPTION
For those who aren't comfy on gravel or have super road race oriented bikes choose the road route which takes you down and around to Old Monte Rio Rd. (a special treat to be sure) and back the BoHo (Bohemian) Hwy direction to Occidental. Gravelers can snack in Caz after the gravel segment and then carry on to Austen Creek and if they feel called, up Magic Mountain before bouncing back to BoHo Hwy and Occidental from Moscow Rd. If returning to Green Valley with riders, why not go UP Morelli Lane?! Less cars, but lots of climb and beauty!
