The ride will take place on Saturday, Oct. 1.
The Konocti Challenge is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Lakeport and is a fun-filled cycling event for all ages.
The challenging 65 and 100 mile routes encircle beautiful Clear Lake while the more subdued 40 mile route travels up Lakeshore Boulevard through Scotts Valley and then around gorgeous Big Valley.
The Rotary Club reported that they have a family-friendly 20 mile ride in which children enjoy participating.
There also are seven well placed and fully stocked rest stops located around Lake County. All stops are manned by local nonprofit groups that are competing for votes and their share of a $5,000 prize pool. This equates to themes, decorations and all sorts of crazy antics to get your vote.
The organizations participating this year are People Services, Hospice of Lake County, Middletown Rotary, Clear Lake High School Class of 2014, Scotts Valley Womens Civic Club, Kelseyville Business Association and Operation Tango Mike (last year’s winner).
In addition, there will be plenty of support on all routes to assist riders and the end-of-ride barbecue on the shores of beautiful Clear Lake at the Lakeport Yacht Club is something not to miss.
The first 400 registered riders get a free t-shirt, bottle and patch, all of which is included in the price of registration.
Also, new this year is our Sunday Guided Wine Adventure with an emphasis on “adventure.”
