Full Century ( Approx 100 Miles)

Approximately 100 miles ~101.02 miles day of ride YELLOW Route Arrows 
The Century leaves Nordhoff High School in Ojai, heading west over Casitas Pass over many of the same roads used by the Amgen Tour of California, only in reverse. The ride continues on through Carpinteria, Montecito and Summerland before heading south along the coast. Enjoy ocean views (and hopefully a cool ocean breeze) back down to Ventura before heading inland. The route will bypass busier parts of Ventura in favor of a more pastoral course to the south. The course then travels through citrus groves to Santa Paula where you will connect with highway 150 to upper Ojai and down the Denison Grade back into town. There are two main climbs: Casitas Pass and Route 150 from Santa Paula to upper Ojai. Both are a few miles long and have typical grades of approx. 5% with some steeper sections. Other parts of the route have rolling hills and flat sections. Below is the elevation profile. The total elevation gain is approx. 3543 ft. Maximum elevation 1581 ft. Total elevation gain 3543 ft
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.
