Bike Ride Description
Start in Guerneville, Park along one of the town's street.
See my Guerneville to Salt Point SP ride for Description from Guerneville to Fort Ross.
From Fort Ross turn south on Highway 1. The road climbs about 500' and is up along some cliffs and the roads are narrow for several miles! The views are fantastic!! However, this portion of the highway can be a bit intimidating, particuarly if you don't ride a lot. For this reason I do not recommend riding this segment on weekend after 9:30ish in the morning.
Alternate Route: on the Fort Ross road from Cazadero turn left (south) on Meyers Grade road (before making the steep decsent to Fort Ross). Meyers grade road connects just north of Jenner on Highway 1.
After several miles on the narrow road up on the cliffs, the road drops bak down close to the water again and the roads again widen a bit.
At Jenner, turn left on Highway 116 (or stop and enjoy some drink and a bite to eat). Highway 116 back to Guerneville follows the Russian River and is very senic! Being along the river is basically flat (very gradual grade). The road is wide in most places and if you have any engery put the hammer down!!
