Santa Barbara County Rides

The mission of this website is to present as many rides in Santa Barbara County as possible in a clean, easy to use format. Photos, descriptions and detailed maps are provided for each ride. Originally the site was intended for street motorcyclists, but is organized so that dirt riding and mountain biking may be added in the future (street bicyclists and sports car enthusiasts may be interested in all the motorcycle listings as well). The website began on 5/1/2002 and was launched on 8/5/2002. It is constantly expanding to include new rides and destinations and is free to all visitors. Many of the rides listed here will also stretch out into Santa Barbara's neighboring counties of Ventura and San Luis Obispo.
