In years past, Clovis, Visalia, Bakersfield and several mountain communities have represented the Central Valley as either a start or finishing stage of the AMGEN Tour of California.
For the first time ever, the route will start south and head north. Some of the key cities include Escondido, Santa Barbara, Avila Beach, San Jose, San Francisco, and And Santa Rosa.
There are a total of twelve stops next year and the race goes from May 12th to the 19th.
