Velo De Femme (2010) -- 42 miles (***) NEW ROUTE CHANGES

This Saturday-only ride is offered by the Rally for women who enjoy the camaraderie of other women riders and discover they can go on a bike ride without the guys. Men will be strongly discouraged to accompany the women riders. There will be on-road riding tips and a clinic at the end of the ride. The ride will be lead by experienced women riders who will make sure no rider is left behind. At the first rest stop at Silvester Winery, all riders will be entered in a raffle. The gifts are supplied by local merchants. The ride is fairly easy to moderate going north along the river, turning eastward past Star Farms, stopping at Silvester Winery for a rest, continuing through the east side of Paso Robles, and on to Templeton where you will find the Templeton Farmer's Market at Templeton Park (6th & Crocker). After a rest stop at the Market, the ride heads northwest to the west side of Hwy. 101 through some fancy residential areas and onto Bethel Rd by Peachy Canyon Winery. Then it's a right turn on Hwy. 46 to Vine St and onward to downtown Paso Robles, heading back to the Fairgrounds. NOTE: There are notations on the route slip showing where to cut the ride short if desired.

PROFILE: 1686 feet of elevation gain. Mostly flat to moderately rolling hills with gentle grades. There are three sections of moderate climbing: Buena Vista Dr., South River Rd., and Vine St. adjacent to the freeway. A mixture of country roads and urban streets
