Sonoma Getaway Day 1 Long Version
10:30 AM
58 mi, 4 M, 3306 ft
Billy Goat
Mt Veeder Rd
Sonoma Getaway Day 1.
Meet at Scott and Susan Francks, 3220 Buckeye Ct, Napa, and be ready to roll promptly at 10:30. We will join Diane's ride up Mt Veeder past a few wineries as we make our way toward Yountville. At mile 16 we will split off to do a ~30 mile loop past Lake Hennessey then return to Yountville and rejoin Diane's route (we will likely miss their picnic in the park, but can purchase food at the market). Continuing past the sculptures on the Yountville Art Walk we will follow the Napa Valley Vine Trail back to the start. This will be a somewhat brisk pace to try to make up for the extra mileage and meet back at the Francks' house for post-ride wind down. If our progress on the loop is slow, we can cut it short and make it an out-and-back to the lake. 22-10-2024 10:30:00 22-10-2024 12:30:00 6 ACTC: Sonoma Getaway Day 1 Long Version 58 mi, 4 M , 3306 ft: Sonoma Getaway Day 1.
