Welcome to the seventh annual Ojai Valley Century Bike Ride. Our management team incorporated many improvements to the 2007/8/9 rides and received many accolades from the event riders. We are striving to make this a ride of choice for the area and solicit any feedback you may have so that we may continue to improve the event each year. We look forward to seeing you on the ride and see why the Amgen Tour of California selected this route for Stage 6 in 2006, 2007, and 2008. We are fortunate to have the mix of flat, coastal, mountains, beautiful country and usually good weather all in one place.
RIDES: Metric Century (62 miles/100km), Full Century (100 miles), Double Metric Century (124 miles/200km), and Hammer Head Century (101 miles with morning hillclimb) MAPS page. The markers on this page show the rest stops.
