Santa Barbara to Santa Monica

Another wonder beach near Summerland.

There are so many places that encourage you to explore.  Carpinteria is a popular surfing destination and for over a century it has used the slogan "World's Safest Beach."  

Carpinteria

Beach at Mussel Shoals with Richland Pier.

I see that there are many places to surf.

I will stick with cycling.

Point Mugu. The name is Chumash for beach.

This continues to be a great beach stretch.

I took a side trip to Topanga State Park.

My 32mm tires did pretty good on these trails and roads. I did run into some deep sand.

It was great to arrive in Santa Monica. This is the end point for Route 66. I did that virtual ride in 2020.
