    Northern California

    Epic Tour

    When this trip debuted in 2006 as our first Epic trip, the California Epic promptly earned Outside Magazine's Trip of the Year award. Though we haven't offered it for a few years, it's time to bring it back! Northern California has some of the most scenic and inspiring bicycling anywhere - from Santa Rosa in the wine country to Mendocino on the coast. Three-time Tour de France winner Greg LeMond trained here; pro cyclist Levi Leipheimer still does. We'll ride some of their hard-but-scenic favorites, which are equally famous in their own right. Along the way, we'll sample the region's world-class lodging, dining and wineries.Bicycle Tours - Northern California Epic

    Budget Tour

    If your idea of the perfect ‘budget-style’ bicycle tour is to have abundant possibilities for riding, idyllic scenery and amazing stops en route, with a hot shower and good bed waiting at the end of each splendid day, this is it. The best times to visit California’s wine country are in spring, when the area is ablaze with wildflowers – or later on in the season, when roses, geraniums and ripening grapes take over. Either way, both the scenery and the riding are magnificent in this region. Bicycle Tours - California Wine Country Budget

  • California Redwoods Classic Tour

    Standing taller than a football field is long, the giant redwoods of northern California once were found nearly everywhere on the planet. Our bicycle tour through this area takes in three different reserves where the kings of the forest still stand watch. As well, we explore the Napa and Sonoma wine regions, plus the only section of California’s coastline without a major highway – a magical stretch called the ‘Lost Coast.’ Bicycle Tours - California Redwoods

    I would recommend BA to anyone who asked. The guides know their stuff and are very accommodating to the different levels of ability that people have. They are very supportive and positive. The staff from your main office were great; all communication was timely. I never felt like I didn’t know what was going on. I loved the challenge and the instant bonding that went on in the group. I would love to take more trips with Bicycle Adventures.”

    What better way to experience wine country than by pedaling through it on a bicycle? Bicycle Adventures offers a four-day bicycle trip that takes vacationers from the redwood forests of Armstrong Redwoods State Reserve to the vineyards of Napa Valley, and to the sumptuous restaurants and plush hotels that have cropped up in between.”

    Wonderful exercise while riding through beautiful scenery. Excellent wine, superb food, fabulous tour guides, and a great way to meet new people who have the same interests as you. You can smell the flowers, almost taste the wine and feel the beauty as you ride through the beautiful countryside. Much better than in an air conditioned vehicle."

    This was our 4th tour with BA and once again our expectations were surpassed. The cycling was outstanding,the meals and accommodations were five-star, and the leaders made each of us feel as though we were the only trip members. Great vacations and Bicycle Adventures have become synonymous for us. We are already planning our next trip.”
