California Bicycle Rides

TourOfCalifornia.org covers organized cycling events and personal bicycle rides in California. Events range from flat and fast gran fondos & centuries to epic super centuries and double centuries as well as multi-day tours. I created the site to document rides I have completed, preserving memories and hoping to provide information and inspiration.

Check out the TourOfCalifornia.org map app. Also available on the App Store, Google Play, and the Microsoft Store.

Enjoy,
