This was an excellent trip! Our leaders were awesome - knowledgeable, fun, and inspiring. I was able to go at my own pace and enjoy the scenery. The rides were scenic and at times challenging. Support was excellent. This was a very enjoyable experience which I would recommend to anyone interested in the wine country.
