Set in the heart of wine country and farm country, surrounded by redwood forests, rivers, lakes and the ocean, The Life Time Gran Fondo California is set to kickoff as an official Gran Fondo ride of the Amgen Tour of California! The party begins and ends in the very unique atmosphere of Cloverleaf Ranch in Santa Rosa, California.
There is a lot planned for this years event, including spectacular courses, vineyard pit stops, great food, FREE beer and wine, a barn party with entertainment, Team Categories, and the chance to take home a sought after custom Gran Fondo Head Badge... Your very own bike bling, to show you are one of the few to have conquered the Challenge Legs within the cutoff time.
The Life Time Gran Fondo California has a category for everybody. For those who have never before entered a bicycle tour or challenge ride there is the 25K Family & Friends ride or the 50K for cyclists looking for a mid distance Fondo. Riders looking for a challenge as an individual or with their club/team, there is the 100K ride, which includes timed 'challenge legs' and individual and team awards.
These routes wind through the beautiful countryside of Sonoma County, taking place on portions of the Amgen Tour of California Pro course just a day before the tour starts!
