In honor of Earth Day, Walk & Bike Mendocino is hosting a leisurely morning ride to Hopland where we will enjoy a scrumptious brunch at Blue Bird Cafe.
The ride is 36 miles round-trip, departing from and returning to the Alex Thomas Plaza. Enjoy a scenic ride pedaling aside grape vineyards, pear orchards and the Russian River on Old River Road (East Side Road). The ride has rolling terrain with only a few very small hills and the riding pace will match the ability of the group. See the link below for the ride route.
Bring a bike, helmet, lights, camera and friends! Due to the length of the trip, also bring water and a repair kit to fix flat tires. If you get a flat and don't know how to change your tube, the group will be equipped to show you how to fix it!
A flat kit includes: Patch Kit (patches, scraper and glue) Spare tube Tire levers Hand Air Pump Bike Multi-Tool (optional)
