Ride options to choose from:

The listed routes are basically the same routes for 2008 with minor modifications as reflected on the route slips.
The Mini-Metric is a flat coastal route up to Carpinteria and back route, totally flat.
The Metric Century and Century routes follow the coast to Carpinteria, then turn inland through the scenic orchards and flower ranches of East Santa Barbara County. The Metric will loop back through Montecito and on home, while the Century hooks up with the very challenging Double-Metric Century riders who have ridden the Ventura River Bike Trail, into East Ojai and over Casitas Pass and connecting with the Century Route into Goleta.
