The Fast-Pace ride heads north then west out of Davis along County Road 29 before turning south through the Yolo County Airport. The ride continues south along Road 95 to Sievers, then doglegs over to Schroeder Road and continues south into Dixon. The route crosses Interstate 80 and heads east to the Solano Baking Company for a snack.
After the break, the route works it's way east and north to Tremont Road, out to Mace Boulevard, and then back to town via Montgomery Road through Willowbank. On the way back to Davis, riders have the option of turning up Old Davis Road for a short cut back into town.
The pace can get especially quick along Road 95 and Schroeder, especially if there's a good northwesterly blowing. That same northwest can make the northbound legs up Runge and Mace challenging. Ride regroups as necessary to make sure no one is left behind.
