California Bike Tours — Summer
It's time to put away the jackets, tights, leg warmers, and rain gear. Summer has arrived in California and brought with it that famous California sunshine. Those bike routes that were off limits due to weather are now a pleasure to travel any day. Ride along the coast with confidence, knowing that the temperature is mild and the sun is shining. Bask in the summer glow of the Northern California Wine Country. And finally, venture over the mountain passes of the high Sierra, for the snows have given way under the rays of the California Sun.
