Double Metric Century ( Approx 120 Miles)
200 kilometers~132 miles day of ride PINK Route Arrows The Double Metric route repeats the Century route (see above) except for a short detour near the beginning of the ride. The detour is a beautiful climb up Hwy 33 into the Los Padres National Forest to the Rose Valley Rd. turnoff and then back down to continue the remainder of the century route. The Rose Valley leg is uphill virtually the whole way through some of the most beautiful scenery in the area and is not for the faint of heart. The elevation of the spur adds an additional 3000 ft. making the approx. gain for the Double Metric 8000 ft. Temperatures in the back country can be hot so we have moved this leg to the beginning of the ride.
The metric, century, and double metric REST STOP has been changed since this map was created from Carpinteria Canalino Grade School to the new location of Carpinteria High School. They are only separated by several blocks.
