This loop used to be The CUnit's bike commute for work. If you like to climb and the rewards
that follow, you'll love this weekend morning jaunt.
Start: At the corner of Adolfo Road and Lewis Road in Camarillo, CA
- Head East on Adolfo to Santa Rosa Road
- L on Santa Rosa Road to Moorpark Road (about 7 Mi)
It's a combination of rollers
and a mile grade until the end. Then you get a short climb up to Santa Rosa School. Past the
school you'll come to the Moorpark road intersection
- At the light continue straight (Santa Rosa becomes Moorpark). Here you start a
6% grade for a little over a mile.
- At the top, continue down to Lynn Road
- R on Lynn to Hillcrest (about 3 or 4 mi of short climbs and fast decents) Careful, this is
a heavily traveled road without a bike lane
- R on Hillcrest to Wendy Drive
- L on Wendy to Old Conejo Road (just over the freeway overpass)
- R on Old Conejo to Reno Road (Water Stop at PepperTree Park!!)
- L on Reno Road to Lynn Road (yes, you can skip all of the twists and turns by just staying on Lynn
...if you are in real good shape)
- R on Lynn and start climbing (Lynn becomes Portrero Road).
At the top use your head. It's a twisting 7% downhill with cactus on the side of the hill
- Continue on Portrero out of the canyon, past Cal State Channel Islands to Lewis Road
- Make a decision to go 36 miles or 42 miles for the day
- For 36 miles, turn right and head back to your starting point
- For 42 turn left and head for Las Posas Road
- R on Las Posas and follow the road all the way around town to Lewis Road
- R on Lewis to the starting point. Make your own way back home from there
