Start: Yountville Park (MP reports the presence of elephants there)

When: Ready to ride at 10 am (will be moved earlier if it turn warm)

What: Over to Silverado Trail, up/down Atlas Peak, through Napa, up Mt. Veeder and down Oakville Grade into Yountville. Those who want more climbing can add in about a 6 mile round trip up Dry Creek to the intersection of Trinity and Cavedale before descending Oakville. A slightly easier option is to ride Dry Creek rather than Mt. Veeder Rd.

Length/climb: 54 miles and 4,400-4,500 ft climbing
