Northwest corner of parking lot next to Steady Eddy’s near Railroad Ave. and Abbey St. in Winters
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. Cantelow Rd is open again, so the long route will go in the usual clockwise direction (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41429096). The distance is 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 about 1000 ft climbing (https://ridewithgps.com/routes/41429095). The two routes split at Steiger Hill and Cantelow Rds. The climbs up Cantelow Rd on the long route are up and back to the top from both sides, so you can just turn around if it becomes too difficult. Also, if you want you can do both climbs on Cantelow Rd before the rest stop by continuing on after climbing to the top and then turn around at Pleasant Valley Rd at the bottom.
5 Points. Weekdays park Arden Way side away from Arden entrance. Weekends park in rear only.

While you‘ll find the typical coffee/tea/pastry shop fare such as mochas, lattes, cappuccinos and such here, Chaii Cafe is anything but typical. This newcomer to the local coffeehouse scene, located in a former Starbucks at 65th St. amd Broadway, has really upped the game. Chaii is a place for discovering the most exotic spins on the old standbys, such as fruit chais, milk chais, Indian chais, lattes, mochas and bubble teas. A small but diverse snack selection includes bagels, Malaysian paratha and even tacos. Give the strawberry mint chai, blue passion chai or red velvet frappe a try and you‘ll never be satisfied with plain ol‘ Starbucks again. Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot.

Easy flat rides out to the Anatolia area to stretch our legs and see what is happening out that way. Routes are the same to mile 15 where those with an itch to see what is out further or just get in a few more miles for Spring Blitz continue toward Grant Line Rd (but we‘ll opt for a residential street for the western cutover rather than busy Grant Line) and continue to the Anatolia Kavala Ranch Trail. The shorter ride turns toward the rest stop before reaching that trail. After some visiting time, both returns have the same short ride home.

*Camp Far West 2A
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/38139563
50 Miles and 2088 feet of climbing
Please join me on a beautiful ride out to Camp Far West reservoir. The hills are green and the lake is full, water is going over the dam. I like to bring a sandwich and just before the mile 22 continue out to the bridge and eat while I enjoy the view.
It will be in the 80’s before we’re finished to bring enough water. This in mostly out in the country. There is no place to get anything between Lincoln at mile 9.5 and Sheridan mile 29. Sheridan has a small market and a coffee shop, the Perky Peacock. The coffee shop has a restroom. The next opportunity to recharge is in Lincoln where there are several places.
There is an option for a shorter ride. Meet at Mcbean Park in Lincoln. This will save you 19 miles and almost all the climbing. If you want to meet the long riders it will take us almost an hour to get there. There is not separate RWGPS route, just use the one above and start at mile 9.4.

Ride starts from the NE corner of the parking lot. Route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45671201
