The 15th Annual Ride Santa Barbara 100 returns on Saturday, October 17, 2026, offering one of the Central Coast's premier cycling experiences starting and finishing at Chase Palm Park. Benefiting MOVE Santa Barbara County, the event draws cyclists of all skill levels to ride through scenic coastal roads, rolling foothills, and iconic local landmarks.
Participants can choose from four distinct routes ranging from a beginner-friendly 34-mile ride to an advanced 100-mile century that features the legendary 6.1-mile Gibraltar Road climb. All courses feature fully supported aid stations, chip timing, and mechanical support to aid cyclists during the courses. The event will conclude with a fun finish line festival at Chase Palm Park with tons of food and beer.
Weather you're taking on a course or cheering from the sidelines, this event is a great way to celebrate Santa Barbara's strong cycling community!
