Healdsburg Bikeride & Wine Tastings

Healdsburg Bikeride & Wine Tastings

May, 2012

Bikeride around Healdsburg.

Our bikeride through Healdsburg included stops at three vinyards.

Our route took us 24 miles along Dry Creek Road through gorgeous vinyards of
Sonoma valley with tasting stops at Lambert Bridge, Dutcher Crossing and Mauritson Winery.

These easy roads were a pleasure to bike.

Light traffic and sweeping views of vinyards as far as the eye could see.

Coincidentally, the Wine Country Century bike race was held today so we shared the road with fellow courteous cyclists who were comfortably spread out along our 24-mile route.

We made frequent stops to take in the scenery.

Dutcher Crossing was the second of three tasting stops.

Great spot for a picnic.

Off to our next stop!

There are lot of wineries in this area.

And I mean a lot of wineries.

There are only so many hours in a day so we had to forego some stops.

... including this place offering cold beer.

Further down the road, Kate spotted some poppies!

More views along the way.

Glam shot!

Our final stop of the day.

We concluded the 24-mile loop in just over four hours.

Cheers!
