Cycle Through the Vineyards Brings Community Together for Another Unforgettable Ride

TEMECULA, Calif. — A little morning drizzle was no match for the enthusiasm of 90 cyclists who gathered for the sold-out 2026 Cycle Through the Vineyards, enjoying a memorable ride through the beautiful Temecula Valley wine country.

Hosted by the Temecula Sunrise Rotary Club in partnership with Mission Hope, and made possible through the support of presenting sponsors Murrieta Development and Bicycle Warehouse, the annual event once again brought together riders, volunteers, wineries, and community partners for a day of fun, fellowship, and giving back. The ride concluded with a celebration at Lorimar Winery, where participants enjoyed great food, local wine, and live entertainment by the American Patriot Band.

More than a scenic ride, Cycle Through the Vineyards showcased the power of community. Proceeds from the event support Mission Hope's food and housing programs while also benefiting Temecula Sunrise Rotary's scholarships and community initiatives, including its annual Safety Town program, which teaches local children essential safety skills.

"We are incredibly grateful to the Temecula Sunrise Rotary Club for their leadership and to every rider, volunteer, sponsor, and community supporter who made this event possible," said Kristi Piatkowski, Development Director for Mission Hope. "Cycle Through the Vineyards is a wonderful reminder of what makes the Temecula Valley so special. When nonprofits come together with businesses and community members, we create a greater impact for everyone we serve."

Cycle Through the Vineyards continues to demonstrate what is possible when local nonprofits, businesses, and community members work together toward a common purpose. The friendships built, partnerships strengthened, and resources raised through this event will help create lasting opportunities for individuals and families throughout the Temecula Valley.
