Holstein Riders, bring your family!
We have shorter routes, 15 and 35 mile, mostly
flat, rural roads. Come give them a try and/or volunteer at a rest stop to cheer on your family
and friends. Also, at Petaluma High School,
there is a wonderful
Wildlife and Natural Science Museum.
They will be open on Saturday, August 20th
from 11-3 for tours.
