Sierra to the Sea is a scenic and challenging 8-day bicycle and camping tour through Northern California, June 19-26, 2010. Starting in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the tour traverses the Sacramento and Napa Valleys, passes down the Pacific Coast, crosses the Golden Gate Bridge and concludes at Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.  See Tour Overview and Where We Go or click on of the tabs above to see photos and video of past tours.

The basic tour route is approximately 420 miles long and averages 60 miles per day for each of seven cycling days. It is challenging and designed for experienced riders. Some less strenuous route options are provided, as well as options for riders who wish greater challenges.

For 2009, we offered a Lake Tahoe Prologue Option. This 3 day tour began in South Lake Tahoe and end in Bear Valley to join the regular Sierra to the Sea tour. Check back on this website for information about the plans for 2010.

Sierra to the Sea and the Lake Tahoe Prologue are organized by the Almaden Cycle Touring Club of San Jose, a not-for-profit organization whose Tierra Bella Century has, for over thirty years, been one of the most respected and successful rides of its kind in California.
