Sierra to the Sea Blues
(sung to the tune of Route 66)
 

Well if you, ever plan to travel west,
Bike the back roads of California, they’re the best.
Join ACTC, on Sierra to the Sea.

It winds from the mountains across the plains,
Through the valleys, down the coast to the ‘Frisco Bay.
Join ACTC, on Sierra to the Sea.

Well it starts in Bear Valley,
Drops down to Jackson,
You lose 5,000 feet, but you climb 6,000,
Get up in the morning, you ride to Ryde,
Where was the wind to Solano?
Somebody chain me with a bike lock,
Before I kill a peacock,
I didn’t sleep a wink because all I heard was ------ all night!

Cruise to Calistoga beyond the hills,
If you think you’re any good, try climbing with Miguel.
Join ACTC, on Sierra to the Sea.

Alas, this awesome tour is almost through,
But before we go, let’s give thanks where thanks are due,
To the staff of ACTC, and Sierra to the Sea.

When your gear arrived safely, that was Raphael and Casey,
All the great food was organized by Sandy,
Registrar was Anne, the web master, Franz,
Bill kept things rollin’ along.
If the route you cannot handle, take it up with Randall,
Thanks Shanna, Marguerite, John, John, Corey, Steve, the SAG teams et al.

Tomorrow, the ocean views are really great,
Then Olema, Tamalpais, and the Golden Gate,
Join ACTC, on Sierra to the Sea.
Life was carefree on Sierra to the Sea.
You better believe……..
