Cycling
We know a thing or two about exploring on two wheels!
Santa Rosa is a top cycling destination, and whether you want to try and challenge Levi Leipheimer on a tough climb or take a more relaxed ride through the vineyards, we've got you covered. Our roads are owned by both world-class riders and passionate amateurs. Cycling in and around Santa Rosa can lead you on well-traveled routes: to the rocky coast and back, or a more leisurely ride along a winding river and around the vineyards.
Experienced riders can rent professional equipment or map out a ride that follows the routes of challenging rides like, Levi’s King Ridge Gran Fondo, the Amgen Tour of California, the Tour De Fox, IRONMAN or one of our many century rides.
Pro Tip: Did you know Santa Rosa has hosted both the overall start and finish of the Amgen Tour of California?
