About riding in California
California covers almost every kind of cycling terrain: coastal roads, redwood and wine-country valleys, the steep Sierra Nevada, and hot inland deserts. Mild weather allows year-round riding on the coast, while mountain routes are best from late spring to early fall. Long climbs and dry summer heat inland are common features of its longer events.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 80 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 8h 00m |
| 12 mph | 6h 40m |
| 14 mph | 5h 43m |
| 16 mph | 5h 00m |
| 18 mph | 4h 27m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
