Routes
Now in its tenth year, The Revolution is a ride and festival that brings together hundreds of people to raise funds for BORP and promote disability awareness.
With routes ranging from 10 miles-100k, weekend warriors and serious cyclists join disabled and visually impaired riders on a fully-supported ride in the stunning landscapes and spectacular vineyards of Sonoma County
65 Mile (100K) Take the Geyser/ Pine Flat Challenge (DIFFICULT): Earn your bragging rights by climbing and conquering the Geyser/Pine Flat course. This route begins with a gorgeous tour of the geysers, with climbs that promise to evoke a sense of awe. After you’ve tackled the geysers, this route introduces Pine Flat Road, one of the most beautiful and undisturbed rides we’ve found in Northern California.

50 Mile: The Geyser Experience (DIFFICULT): Here is the route for those distance riders who love to seek out new challenges and work for that hard-earned sense of accomplishment.We know you’ve been looking for an excuse to conquer the geysers, so this year we’ve devoted our two longest routes to getting you up on that summit. Click here for the 50 mile route.
NEW! 40 Mile: Tour of the Wine Country (MODERATE): By popular demand we have added a 40 mile route that is less difficult than the The Geyser Experience! Route Map Coming Soon!
25 Mile: The Vineyard Tour (MODERATE): Through flat valley lands and a few rolling hills, the 20 mile route passes oak woodlands, orchards, and Sonoma's world-renowned wineries. There is an optional 5 mile out and back to Lake Sonoma before rejoining the route that travels northward through the picturesque town of Geyserville. Click here for a route map.
NEW! 5k - 10 Mile: The Trentadue Vineyard Roll & Stroll (EASY): If cycling isn't really your thing or if you prefer an easy go-at-your-own-pace ride, join the Roll & Stroll for a leisurely trip through the lovely Trentadue Vineyards. Choose a distance that works for you from 5k up to 10 miles. Route Map Coming Soon!
Virtual Rider: Even if you can't make it to the Rev yourself you can help support all of BORP's programs by being a Virtual Rider. With this option, you register as a rider, fundraise to assist our participants, and ‘ride in absentee’. In this way, you are able to fully support the Revolution and our programs, even if you cannot ride in person. Select "Virtual Rider" on the Registration Form.
The Festival
Following the ride, riders, supporter, vounteers and friends celebrate the day’s success at a Food & Music Festival at Geyserville’s Trentadue Winery.
The Revolution Festival begins at 1pm, and features gourmet food, fine wine, live music, and a brief event program beginning at 5pm and lasting approximately 30-45 minutes. A dedicated team of massage-therapists offer free massages all day for riders, festival-goers, and guests!
The Festival is a way to join in the celebration of the day's success and another way to help support people with physical disabilities. All festival attendees (who are not registered as riders or volunteers) must register in advance. Festival registration is only $100 and space is limited!
