The route stops in old West Sacramento for a blast from the past, Whitey‘s Jolly Kone. This hamburger/hot dog/fries stand may have opened in 1963 but it‘s got a real ‘40s-‘50s vibe. What make it really stand out are its unusual milkshake flavors, including banana, blackberry, Butterfinger, butterscotch, cherry and peanut butter. There are also sundaes of various types and soft serve cones. Also available are a number of burgers, dogs, burritos, tacos and tostadas and a handful of side dishes. Health food it ain‘t, but the menu will take you back to the days when you could pig out on this stuff and not gain an ounce. This is classified as a lunch ride, but do what you want. Since this joint opens at 11, the ride always starts at 9:30 so we can arrive slightly early to get in line. The route has been modified to omit levee trails that are currently closed.

Northwest corner of the parking lot next to Steady Eddy’s near Railroad Ave. and Abbey St.
This ride goes to the Pure Grain Bakery in downtown Vacaville and returns a different route to Winters for an optional refreshment at Hooby’s Brewing in Winters, ergo the name. Due to a road closure on Cantelow Rd. the direction of the long route has been reversed (counterclockwise) so that you climb Cantelow Rd. from the back side (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45945311). The distance is still about 44 miles with 2,000 ft climbing. The short route has not changed and goes around the English Hills in a clockwise direction staying on the lower rollers in the English Hills. It’s 36 miles with 1060 ft climbing (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41429095). The two routes split on Putah Creek Rd just after crossing the bridge out of Winters, so you need to decide early on which route you’re doing.
