It looks like the Tour of California is offering the opportunity to ride the ESCONDIDO STAGE the day before the race Saturday May 11th with Stage 1 on Sunday May 12th. While the route has not been announced we know that Stage 1 will START and FINISH in Escondido which means the route will be many of the roads that we ride weekly. Since the the Pre-Ride is officially sponsored by the Tour of California it should be a good event.
So, show some NCCC support and sign up for the event. While $95 is not cheap it's a very cool opportunity.
Bill, this may help your planning for your potential ride the entire route adventure.
