All of this is available for only $1995 (compared to $2596 for a similar tour)!

Wild West Cycling's Tour of California includes a number of
amenities to maximize and deepen your cycling experience!

Accomodations -
We include 9 nights of stay in motor inns that
have been rated by AAA.  These comfortable inns are generally
within close proximity to the daily Starts or Finishes of AMGEN's
Tour of California, so you will be close to the pros' racing action!  
The rooms are generally Double Occupancy.  However, you may
opt for a Single Occupancy for an additional supplement of $500, of
which $50 is due upon reservation and $450 will be due 30 days
prior to the start of the Tour.  As soon as we receive our minimum
tour guest participation, we will book all of the lodging and confirm
the precise locations with you.  
(Note: You may need to take Ground
Transportation to the first night's stay on 2/17 in the San Francisco Bay Area.)

Vehicle Support - We have a full-sized passenger van to transport
riders, guests, bikes, and luggage throughout our tour.  We may use
additional vehicles if the need arises.

Rider Support - The one to two vehicles that we use for
transportation will also support riders during their 7 days and 532
miles of cycling.  During the ride, the vehicle(s) will have sports
drinks in squeeze bottles, energy gels, and other endurance-oriented
nourishment available.  In addition, the driver(s) will be able to assist
with minor mechanical problems that you may encounter.  One to
two riding tour guides, knowledgeable about each day's route, will
accompany and assist the guest riders.  In addition, you will be
equipped with directions prior to each day's ride.  Lastly, you may
end a day's ride early and rest in the van if you so desire.

Meals - During the 7 full days of activity and Day 9 Return, we
provide two complete meals each day.  The pre-ride breakfasts will
be a delectable assortment of endurance-oriented food and drinks.  
The post-ride dinners will be a delicious arrangement of
recovery-oriented food and drinks.  While some of these meals may
be homemade if the proper facilities are available, many will be
prepared by restaurants and other reputable service providers.
