The route stops in old West Sacramento for a blast from the past, Whitey‘s Jolly Kone. This hamburger/hot dog/fries stand may have opened in 1963 but it‘s got a real ‘40s-‘50s vibe.

The Sacramento Century Challenge is the region’s premier cycling event, with well over 1,000 riders annually. Presented by the Rotary Club of Sacramento, the 11th annual Challenge will benefit the Sacramento Children’s Home Crisis Nursery program, which protects kids from child abuse and neglect. The bike ride starts from Capitol Mall in downtown Sacramento and winds through the scenic Delta wine region to Isleton, then back to the Mall. There are four different routes: 100 mi., 63 mi., 36 mi., 16 mi. We also have a great Post-Ride Festival, with live music, delicious food and outstanding beer and wine vendors https://www.sacramentocentury.com/
