Davis rando rides

[Dave]

I'd like to know what the routes are (elevation, area covered, etc) for the Davis bike club randonneur rides.   Does anyone know if they have a RideWithGPS username that I can dig around in?  Their website doesn't have any links for me to click through...

Hi Dave,

To be accurate, the host club for the CA: Davis region is the Gold Country Randonneurs. The Davis Bike Club is no longer the host.

The routes used for that region in the past will remain and are owned by the region, not the host club and will be managed by the RBA. which is not changing (still Deb Banks!!). I expect the table of routes for the region will be published on the website you linked fairly soon. The calendar for that region will also be listed there soon to but you can find that on the rusa website now.

While Charlie has posted the ride schedule for Gold Country Randonneurs, please note that the spreadsheet is for rides from 2025, not the upcoming rides for 2026.  Dates and events may change, yada, yada...

Dave, a recent Gold Country Randonneurs newsletter email from Deb had a couple of links to RwGPS routes which appear to be associated with the "Banksie" user account. I don't know if it is accurate or helpful, but maybe? Here you go:

Good luck,

Thanks all, its great to see the hive mind at work.  GCR has more than a few options that are "less hilly" which is something I'm looking for (also researching Santa Cruz and Humboldt).

Hi Dave,

Since RUSA is starting recording elevation gain in rides from this year, they have a search option in upcoming rides now:
https://rusa.org/cgi-bin/eventsearch_GF.pl however, it seems that only a few routes have been populated so far. Not sure how long RBAs have to enter the data.

Cheers,

Paul A

Hi Paul, the answer is somewhat involved.

Event elevation must be populated by the time of results submission, ensuring riders always receive elevation credit for any calendared non-team events.

Route elevation can remain blank indefinitely. There are two entry points for RBAs to populate it: (1) from a self-service RBA tool, or (2) during results submission when using that route, if the RBA chooses to assign elevation to the route at that point.

Newly approved routes will have elevation assigned from the get-go because it's part of the modern route approval process. So only the routes before this climbing feature was introduced might be missing the data, and over time more and more of those will be populated.

For elevation for team events (you didn't ask, but I'm throwing it in for completeness), it's up to each team to submit RideWithGPS files to the organizer in a timely manner. Those routes correspond to what was actually ridden vs what was planned (e.g. a team may have not completed all their bonus distance, or may have had to take a detour due to road conditions).
