Come join us for a scenic 5-day ride through the majestic Redwoods and mountains of Northern California. The ride will be a mix of country road, dirt roads, and of courses the beautiful Highways 1 &101. Each day will end at a motel where we can enjoy a good meal and explore the communities of Northern California.

Although the dirt sections should be good fire type roads, you should have the ability to ride long distances (45miles) in the dirt at a reasonable pace. Many of the paved roads will be very winding and would be challenging for a beginner rider.

Day One will take us from Red Bluff south along country roads to Stoneyford where we will hit the dirt and make our way to Hwy 20 and on to Fort Bragg.

Day Two will see us driving north on historic Hwy 1 through the Richardson Grove State Park and on to Garberville. From Garberville we’ll head east to Ruth Lake, north to Hayfork, then on to Weaverville for the night.

Day Three takes us west on Hwy 299 along the Trinity River and on to the community of Hoopa where we will cross over the coastal range to Orick. From there it's north along the coast highway through the heart of the Redwoods and on to Gold Beach Oregon.

Day Four takes us east along the Rogue River then south to Cave Junction Oregon and a visit to Oregon Caves National Monument. From the caves we go south over the mountain and end in the tiny community of Happy Camp for the night.

Day Five will take us through the Seiad Valley and south to the Scott Valley where we continue on to Trinity Lake, then east to Redding where we will start our journey home.
