This ride is part of our 2026 Rouleur Week. For more general information about Rouleur Week, visit this link.
This is the most climby (in terms of feet per mile) of all our Rouleur week rides, but it is also one of the prettiest. The ride starts in west Ventura at the museum parking lot, then heads up to Santa Barbara. The ride includes the spectacular East Mountain Rd in the hills above Montecito and Santa Barbara. On a clear day, the views of Santa Barbara harbor are amazing up here. On the return, the ride goes through Hope Ranch and the beachfront in Santa Barbara.
This is a minimally supported ride. Riders are responsible for obtaining their own food and water on the course. There is no SAG vehicle.
