Talkin' Burgers

One of my favorite rides for a burger is what I call the "Stoneyford/Sutter Buttes" ride. This is a beautiful ride through the Capay Valley along Hwy. 16 past Cache Creek and then east on Hwy. 20. Take Sites Lodago Rd. through Stoneyford and head north to Elk Creek. East on Hwy. 162 to the city of Willows and lunch at www.thelaststandupbar.com The Last Stand Up is a fun place with great food and awesome prices. If you have a group and call ahead, they will set the back room up for you. After lunch I go south on Hwy. 45 to Knights Landing. Along the way you get a great view of the Sutter Buttes, also known as the smallest mountain range in the world. I then make my way home via the freeway. I've done this ride in the Spring and Fall. Both are good but in the Spring, all of the creeks are running and the hills are green.
