California's Wine Country Bicycle Tour: Sonoma County

California's wine country is ideal for a bicycle tours with its rolling hills north of San Francisco. Coastal breezes give a perfect climate for growing grapes at literally hundreds of wineries in Sonoma County. Sonoma County is partially home to the Napa Valley, California's most famous wine growing region. Napa County is adjacent to and just east of Sonoma County.

Not only is Sonoma County full of wineries, they are huge on bicycles. The Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition has a thorough website of bicycle maps and directions to every little town in the county. Not only do they supply fantastic bicycle maps of the county but the Coalition also is a liaison to the local government for issues revolving around bicycling through wine country. If you want to bicycle in California's wine country, Sonoma County is your tour.

Wine Country Bikes is a good place to start. They have bicycle rentals, guided tours, group tours, and self-guided tours of Sonoma County. Wine Country Bikes has a one day tour, weekend tours, and multi day tours. They have everything you'll need to thoroughly enjoy your Bicycle Tour of wine country.

If you want to leisurely take your time through the back roads and sleepy little towns of Sonoma County, I suggest you try some self-guided tours. Give Wine Country Bikes your itinerary and they can help you arrange reservations at some of the romantic bed and breakfasts along the way.

Take leisurely four day trips through easy hills and travel about thirty miles a day. Or you can take more strenuous trips to the coast and see giant redwood trees. Go all out with a six-day self-guided tour and travel up to fifty miles a day and travel from the coast and then into the Napa Valley.

You should definitely book your tour several months in advance as dates fill up quickly during the summer months and holiday weekends. March through October sees the average high temperatures in the 70s and up into the 80s. Even the coldest months have high temps in the upper fifties, so even if you like cold weather cycling this is the tour for you. Sonoma County has several levels of difficulty for novice all the way up to experienced riders. Pick a tour that's right for you and you will certainly enjoy your tour of wine country and some of the finest weather in the United States. Any bicyclist would love to take this tour at least once in their lives and this is the perfect place for you.

Where in America to take a 6-8 week bike tour?
I would like to take a self-supported bicycle tour with my son, and possibly one of his friends. I did the Transamerica trail about 20 years ago, so am not worried about preparing for such a trip. But where to go? 6 weeks isn't enough to do a quality coast-to-coast. I'm not young, anymore. Besides, a big part of the tour is stopping in small towns and visiting with the locals. Maybe a half of a coast-to-coast trail? Or something in Canada? Or north-south? I've never spent significant time in the south, and that could be different. I've never seen the Black Hills. We've been to Yellowstone before, but my son was a little boy at the time, and it would be different on bike. It would be good to go through a variety of climates and terrains. Any recommendations?
