REGISTRATION: Please register for our "2-3 day weekend" rides, so we can plan better and keep you updated. (Registration is not a strict requirement, so feel free to decide at the last minute if necessary. Registered riders will receive detailed logistics information.)
Our “away” weekends will be a little different this year in that we won’t be able to have our usual group dinners and wine/cheese parties around the pool. That said, we still expect a fun weekend. All destinations include numerous outdoor dining options, so riders will be able to go out in small self-organized groups. See below for accommodation information – as usual make reservations early but be sure they are cancellable…
LDT logistics have been changed for 2021 to adapt to COVID restrictions!
- For Saturday LDT rides, riders can sign in and start at any time during a 30 minute time window.
- We have suggested start times for each ride level, but all riders are welcome to start at any time during the window.
- Riding groups should not exceed 15-20 riders.
- All riders must be WWBC Members.
- As with all WWBC rides, face masks are mandatory for everyone at ride start and at regroups (see details below).
- PRINT ROUTE SHEETS AT HOME – no paper route sheets will be distributed!
- Make sure you “SIGN IN”– we are required to have attendance information for all riders! "Sign in" will be done verbally at check in table. (Alternately you can text Guy at 650-704-0895. Be sure to include your full name and which route you are doing.)
LDT RIDE: PASO ROBLES WEEKEND

- C/2(3200’)/61;

NOTE - due to COVID there are no services before lunch - pack plenty of water and snacks! Our inland routes explore the wine country surrounding Paso Robles. After a scenic and enjoyable morning of rolling vineyards, most of the climbing comes after our lunch in San Miguel. D and E riders take loops up Hog Canyon and Klau Mine Road. For those of you who will not arrive Friday night, Paso Robles is a three hour drive from Palo Alto so start early. Rain cancels. See additional ride listings for Friday, Sunday, and Monday. Don’t miss out in 2021 – this ride is currently offered every two years! Online route sheets/maps/gps.
