California is the perfect place to take on the challenge of a Gran Fondo. Browse our comprehensive listings of bike races in California 2026 - 2027.
Gran fondos are generally non-competitive bike rides. The term originated in Italy and is best translated as ‘big ride’. Pretty apt with most events ranging from 30 to over 300 miles. These epic cycle rides are a great way to experience the stunning roads and beautiful scenery California has to offer. With multiple distances on offer, whether you’re newer to riding and taking on your longest ride yet, or an experienced cyclist wanting to push yourself in a large group, a Gran Fondo will have the perfect test for you.
The Golden State has produced some of the greatest riders in history, with three time Tour de France winner Greg Lemond honing his skills on the mountain roads of the Sierra Nevada. Why not follow in his footsteps on the Mammoth Gran Fondo or try out the fastest growing race in the US, Phils Cookie Fondo. Whichever one you choose you’re almost guaranteed great food and drink with the spread on offer being a key part of any long bike race!
Check out our exhaustive 2026 - 2027 California Gran Fondos calendar list below, and use our month, distance and terrain filters to find your next challenge.
