A bike ride through quiet neighborhoods and scenic vineyards to family-owned wineries might just be the right thing to do to complement a relaxing stay in Calistoga. Calistoga Bikeshop right here on Lincoln Avenue, Calistoga’s main street, has an extensive fleet of rental bikes and can help you plan a wonderful day of exploring a quieter side of the Napa Valley by bike.
When you first walk into Calistoga Bikeshop, you might wonder if you are in the right place, especially if you expected a traditional bike shop. Yes, there are bikes—lots of elegant bicycles on special displays—but there is also a vast array of cyclist clothing (the shop boasts the best selection of women’s bike clothing in the Napa Valley!), artwork, a sitting area, and even a coffee bar. Turning the corner into the other part of the shop, however, you quickly notice that this is, indeed, a full-fledged bike shop with its expansive workshop and huge selection of bicycles, both for sale and for rent.
For most of the year, a special bike rental desk is set up in the front of the store for easy-in, easy-out of the renters. You can choose any type of bike, from the one-speed beach cruiser, perfect for meandering through our little town, to a top-of-the-line full-suspension mountain bike to tackle the challenging Oat Hill Mine Trail just outside of Calistoga. Most visitors to the Napa Valley, however, choose the ultra-comfortable Wine Touring bikes, complete with maps featuring local wineries, custom-made wine bottle carriers, wine pick-up service, and roadside assistance.
Whatever your vision of a bike ride through the Napa Valley, Calistoga Bikeshop is sure to have the right bike and the right route recommendation to make it a special day for you. Advance reservations are recommended.
