I'm looking for a route that doesn't involve too much I-80 and I figured that some of you might have some good advice.

Take the ferry to Vallejo, short trip on 80 to 12 in Fairfield. Take 12 to 113 or rio vista and take farm roads up to Sacramento.

Play with Google maps a bit using the "no highways" function. Looks like you can avoid I-80 altogether by heading out of Vallejo on Route 29 toward Napa until you reach Route 12, then East.

Ok. I don't think I explained myself well enough. Im not really looking for the LMGTFY responses--I appreciate it, but i can do that myself. I'm really looking more for some passionate insight like, "Omg! The 160 along the Sacramento River from Rio Vista is totally worth the time spent on I-80." Or some such jewel of not-to-be-missed advice.

Oh, in that case.
Ferry to Vallejo 29 north to Napa 221 to 121 128 east through Winters(this is the awesome part) Come into Davis and hit 80 across the causeway into Sac On the way back take the farm roads west of Elk Grove along the deep channel to Rio Vista Take 12 west back and see all the wind mills. |

What dmpawley said except from Davis to Sac you can take Road 102 to Woodland through nice smelling farm land, then take E Main Street out of Woodland east which turns into Old River Road, take the River Road into Sacramento through West Sac. The River Road portion is pretty, it only adds maybe 40 minutes to the ride, and you can stop at Whitey's Jolly Cone in West Sac for the famous fresh peach milkshake (if you're doing this soon!) Then over the Capitol Bridge into downtown.
