Welcome to the 2009 Bike MS: Waves to Wine - we hope you'll join us on September 12th and 13th, 2009 for the most picturesque, albeit challenging, MS Bike Ride in the country! This is a full-supported 2-day bike event, so all you have to worry about is riding from the start to the finish each day we'll take care of the rest!
Day 1: Starting in SF, heading over the Golden Gate Bridge, out HWY 1 to Stinson Beach then heading to Rohnert Park for the overnight - approx. 75 miles. There will also be a 100 mile option that day for those real go-getters in the bunch. Likewise, there will also be a shorter option for Day 1 starting and finishing from Sonoma Mountain Village. This day will be very hilly and challenging, but also very gratifying!
Day 2: Heading from Rohnert Park to West County up to Healdsburg, winding through some great rural areas and wineries in 75 miles. This day is a much flatter day than Day 1. We also have a 50 mile option.
There will be rest stops approximately every 12 miles along with a lunch stop and post-ride dinner both days, so you will have plenty of liquids and food to keep you going all day long. There will also be other special surprises along the course to keep you going through some of those especially challenging parts of the route.
The overnight is quite a festival of great food, great music, and wine and beer from our generous sponsors. It'll be a chance for you to share recaps of your day out on the course and to just hang out with your fellow riders. Then off to bed to rest up for the follow day's ride.
$30 until May 1st, $45 until July 27th, $55 until Aug 24th, $65 after with a $350 minimum fundraising.
