This is a new 200k route, based on permanent #5445(The Spot). It begins in Oxnard and works its way up to Isla Vista, near UCSB. The route includes many of our favorite roads and paths. There is 4400 feet of climbing, so you will get a good workout. The return is mostly along the coast, which will be a blessing on a hot day.
The turn-around point is on the UCSB campus, at the Campus Lagoon near the Marine Biotechnology Center. The club will provide food here, utilizing the picnic tables along the shore of the lagoon.
Other than the lunch at mile 70, this is an unsupported ride. Riders will need to obtain their own water and food out on the course. There is no SAG vehicle.
