Celebrating

the Folsom way
F
story and photos by Bill Sullivan
or most of us, growing up our bicycle was our way of life. In Fol-
som, such remains the case for all ages as our area is bustling with
cyclists, cycling resources, community rides and a trail system that
is second to none.
Once again, the month of May is officially Bike Month in the Sacramento
area. The area campaign encourages everyone to leave the four-wheeled form
of transportation home and hop aboard a bike for as much travel as possible.
It doesnt matter if its a joy ride with the family or one of our fabulous trails,
an organized group ride or a commute to work. The fact is Folsom just has
more opportunities to celebrate the season than most cities.

Taking it to the streets
When it comes to road cycling in the area, the City of Folsom offers
hundreds of miles of options. In the city alone, over 30 miles of trail
are designated Class I Bike Paths are all very well maintained and con-
tinue to grow. In addition to the Class I routes, more than 67 miles of
local riding territory consists of quality Class II Bike Paths that share the
road with rider and motorists to share the space throughout the city.
When you add in another 30 miles or more of paved trails, known as
the American River Bike Trail, that connects with our trails, it becomes
pretty obvious that Folsom offers more road cycling real estate than any
one person can accomplish in a day. There is plenty of scenery along
the routes from the streams and scenes of the Willow Humbug Creek,
to those that parallel the American River, such as the popular Natomas
Loop. And there are others that go through the areas Historic District
and can connect a rider to downtown Sacramento. Regardless of the
route, the surroundings are beautiful this time of year.
If you are avid road cyclist and want to take your riding and
conditioning to the next level, Folsom is home to The Lab. This indoor
training facility specializes in cycling training as well as off the bike
fitness programs. Learn about them at strongerbetterme.com.

Great Scott!
you can even ride with the Mayor
If youre looking for a really unique group ride, Bike Month kicks off with two very
special events in Folsom. The Great Scott Bike and Walk and another opportunity where
you can even join our mayor for a ride.
The Great Scott Bike and Walk event takes riders on 30 miles of country roads on the
south side of Folsom that will be closed to traffic from 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. May 7. The
road closure and a speed limit makes this event fun for the entire family. Cyclists can
choose the distance they want to ride within the 30 mile stretch of Scott Road. For entry
information on this event go to BikeGreatScott.com.
On Thursday, May 11, join Mayor Andy Morin on the 10th annual Folsom Ride with
the Mayor event. This longtime traditional ride starts in Historic Folsom and departs at
8:30 a.m. for a 30-mile route to Discovery Park in Sacramento. Once at their destination,
riders enjoy a complimentary lunch provided by the May is Bike Month organizers.
After being reelected as mayor this year, Morin is ready for the journey this year.
In recent years, even when I was mayor before, there were times my schedule
conflicted with this ride, said Morin. This year I am ready to go. This is a great event and
Im really looking forward to it.
Morin recently cut the ribbon at the new Lake Natoma Waterfront Trail in the citys
Historic District. While walking the trail, the Folsom resident and longtime City Council
member expressed how Folsoms cycling opportunities are a draw for new residents to
the city.
Weve always had great trails here and everyone truly enjoys them, Morin said. But
now we are seeing people wanting to move into Folsom so they can enjoy these trails.
Its really a great thing to see happening.

S
ince 1991,Coffee Republic has been built by family, crew and the
community and recently changed ownership.
Sunny Zaighami, owner of Petes Restaurant and Brewhouse next
door, was looking to open up another business in the Rocklin area. Upon
making this decision, an opportunity to purchase one of Folsoms long-time
favorites presented itself.
The previous owner was looking to sell and Zaighami said it was the right
opportunity at the right time.
I know the business. I see the traffic they get as a neighbor and they
have a good following, he said. Twenty-five years is a long time to be in
business.
The long-loved coffee house sells handmade coffee, tea, breakfast and
lunch sandwiches, salads, soups and more.
The coffee is a major part of the business. We have good coffee, Zaigha-
mi said. We also have great sandwich recipes that the previous owner
created and people really enjoy them.
Another aspect of Coffee Republic is the front patio.

When it gets warmer out during
the summer, the line will be out the
door. I have seen it all the way to the
front gate, he said. Its crazy. It gets
really busy.
The atmosphere in the shop is laid-
back and relaxing. It is the perfect
setting to hangout and chat with
friends and get to work.
When you come in here, there are
so many things to look at and check
out, Zaighami said. It has good
vibes, as well as the people who come
in. It has that warm feeling.
Mark Eister, manager, has worked
for Coffee Republic for four and a
half years and he said all the employ-
ees are really invested in the shop,
even though they dont own it.
I have been in the food and
beverage industry for 11 or 12 years
and I have noticed a lot of people
will just show up, get a pay check
and go home, he said. The group I
started with here, worked under, and
now manage, if something needs to
be cleaned or fixed, we take it upon
ourselves to do it. I have stories of
long nights on the roof changing the
A/C system because it broke. I have
a pride of ownership.
Eister said it really is the local
clientele and regular customers who
make the business what it is.
Zaighami said his favorite aspect of
Coffee Republic is the staff.

Recipes
Fajita Steak Tacos
Serves 2
Tacos have become a staple in my household so much more often than
just taco Tuesday. If I am really craving that fajita flavor, tacos will appear
on the dinner menu at least a couple times a week. However, that being
said, I do like to switch up what meats I use in my taco. Beef is pretty
typical. I enjoy ground beef and slow-roasted. This time I tried steak. It
was intensely flavorful and wonderfully tender. I may have to make these
more often.
1 pound of steak of your choice, cut into strips
2 tablespoon cumin
Pink Himalayan salt and pepper to taste
2 key limes juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
yellow onion
1 red bell pepper
1 bunch of fresh kale
4 tortillas (I use grain-free almond tortillas)
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Slice yellow onion, red bell pepper, and kale and arrange on a baking sheet. Driz-
zle with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Place in oven for 20 minutes.*Watch
the kale as it tends to burn quickly.
Slice steak into fajita strips. Coat with salt, pepper and cumin.
Heat olive oil on skillet until hot but not smoking. Place the strips on the skillet
and brown on the sides. Cover with lime juice and toss until cooked through (ap-
proximately 10 minutes).
Warm tortillas in oven with veggies.
Remove veggies and meat from heat.
Put it all together and top with any additional toppings you desire.
Asian-Inspired Kabobs
Serves 2
Despite what the last two recipes may indicate, I really hate eating foods with my
hands. Personal pet-peeve of mine is when my fingers smell like food. A way I avoid my
irrational irritation is in the glamour of a kabob. Nothing is more effortless than eating
off of a stick. Plus you save having to wash additional dishes. Everything you wish to eat
is nicely arranged on a skewer. Turns out you dont need a barbecue to enjoy this has-
sle-free way of eating since these are broiled in the oven. I might just have to see how
many meals I can transform into kabobs.
1 pound beef of choice Slice beef into bite-sized squares and set in a
1 yellow onion bowl. Cover beef with coconut aminos and let
1 green bell pepper marinate for 30 minutes.
5 tablespoons coconut aminos Drain excess fluid and place back in bowl.
2 tablespoons ginger powder Coat with spices and arrowroot starch and toss.
1 teaspoon garlic powder Slice veggies *add pineapple for added flavor.
1 teaspoon arrowroot starch Alternate veggies with meat until skewer is full.
Pink Himalayan salt and pepper to taste Sprinkle with sesame seeds, salt and pepper.
1 tablespoon sesame seeds Arrange on a baking sheet and broil each side
2 tablespoon olive oil for 10 minutes. Do less time for a more rare meat.
Remove from oven (be careful) and allow to cool
to desired temperature.

two locations
both in Amador
County and even
in Sutter Creek.
If anyone is spending time in this fabulous wine region, there is
much to see in both of these great areas, but we are here to give
you the inside scoop on Bella Grace and why this should be a
stop on your trip, whether you are in Amador County or Sutter
Creek.
First and foremost, Bella Grace Vineyards is a sustainable
vineyard. When you visit the vineyard onsite with an appoint-
ment, visitors are able to go on a cave tour and even experience
a weekend tasting line-up. The tastings at the vineyard and wine
cave provide a panoramic view of the estate with a backdrop of
the High Sierras. Visitors also have the option to enjoy a picnic
outside of the wine caves. This is completely a special experience
with an exceptional showcase of wines. What do wine-tasting
aficionados and non-wine experts need to expect at either of
these locations? The answer here is quite simple and this goes for
both genres alike.
Wine-tasters can expect bold reds in the Zinfandel variety,
as well as Barberas, and unique blends such as a Montagnaro.
For the white wine lovers, Bella Grace offers an estate blend of
their Grenache blanc, Vermentino and Roussanne. Patrons have
described this bold, crisp white as the ultimate palate pleaser. In
addition, the winery offers a reserve Chardonnay, a Roussanne
with hints of vanilla, honey and pear on the palate, and even a
sparkling Brut. These is just a sneak preview and wine-tasters
have many more options.
In addition, visitors can also taste olive oils and vinegars (along
with the wines, these can also be purchased online). The assort-
ment is quite varied and patrons can enjoy flavors such as ginger,
honey, pomegranate and basil,
to name just a few. Bella Grace
truly offers a unique tasting
experience with the combina-
tion of wine, and gourmet oils
and vinegars. The winery hosts
spectacular events such as the
summer lobster feed and there
are many upcoming events as
well. In May, the Sunshine
& White Wine event will
take place at the Bella Grace
Vineyard and wine cave on
May 7. Attendees will enjoy
wine pairings of white wines
combined with unique cheeses
selected by the winemaker to
compliment the spring releases,
along with pizza from the RC
Pizza Wagon. On May 26,
Bella Grace Vineyard will host
an evening event with Wicked
Sisters in concert at the Sutter
Creek location.

wine column
By Erik Loigom
Living in Amador County, a stones throw from some ex-
ceptional wineries of great quality. One of our favorites and a
brand that we sell a lot of in our store is Jeff Runquist Wines.
Runquist has a long history in the wine industry starting
back in 1977 when he interned with Seagrams at their Paul
Masson Sherry Cellars in Madera while studying enology at
U.C. Davis. Upon graduating in 1980, he worked in the cellar
at Montevina in Amador Countys Shenandoah Valley and
was promoted to winemaker in 1982. After a three-year stint
at the Napa Valley Cooperative Winery from 1987 through
1990, Runquist became the winemaker for the J. Lohr winery.
Runquists first vintage under his own label was 1997,
when he released 700 cases of Zinfandel. In 2006, he pur-
chased a small five-acre walnut orchard on Shenandoah
Road. In the spring of 2008, he and wife Margie opened their
tasting room. Production facilities followed and Runquist was
able to crush the majority of the production in Amador in
2011.
Runquist travels throughout California to find just the right
grapes for his vineyard designated wines. The winery produces
22 different red varietals from nine appellations.
He produces balanced wines that can be enjoyed in their
youth, but will also age and become more complex with time.
Besides the numerous awards Runquist receives each year for
his exceptional wines, in 2009 he was named Winemaker of
the Year by the San Francisco International Wine Competi-
tion.
