Roughly 90 minutes north of San Francisco, Healdsburg is a small town with a big cycling reputation: The roads nearby ranked among Bicycling Magazine’s seven greatest rides on Earth in 2011. The town is located in the heart of wine-rich Sonoma County, which means rides offer a mix of gentle, rolling terrain and challenging climbs along roads flanked by vineyards and, in the spring, lupine, California poppies, and other wild blooms. (Yes, it also means A+ après.)
