Grassi at Play: Spring Social and Bike Ride

Grassi's Spring Social and Bike Ride features a 55-mile loop that runs from their offices in downtown Napa, through the Carneros region of Southern Napa, over Mount Veeder, then back down the Vine Trail to the Grassi parking lot for local food, wine, and conversation. The ride showcases some of the most scenic landscapes in Napa Valley along primarily rural less-traveled roads.

The Carneros area is closest to San Pablo Bay, giving it a cooler climate. Cyclists bike through wide open spaces and rolling hills of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards. From there, the riders climb Mount Veeder's steep, challenging mountain face. They descend the rugged terrain and finish via the vehicle-free Vine Trail dedicated to biking and walking. Will we see you next year?
