THE RIDE
The Ruta del Vino Bike Ride & Wine Festival is an international cycling event through the wine capital of Mexico: The Guadalupe Valley. Along the course you’ll pass by 25 wineries in the heart of the valley, where the aroma of grapes dances with a cool Pacific breeze and the sun warms the rural landscape.
The entire course is paved and features plenty of climbing. It’s a fun ride, but if you’re an avid cyclist, we invite you to add some fun by competing in the Elite category!.
