Los Angeles Wheelmen Grand Tour 6/28/2025

Double Metric, Double, Triple, Quad, and Double-Double Centuries

 

    The 66th Annual Grand Tour will be held on June 28, 2025.  With the minor exception of the northern terminus of the Double-Double, Triple, and Quad routes, the route remains the same as the 2024 routes.  The start and finish is the Holiday Inn Express in Port Hueneme with a loop into Camarillo and back to Port Hueneme.  The route (Highland and Lowland) then follows the original route to Moorpark, Ojai, Carpinteria, and back down the coast to finish in Port Hueneme at the Holiday Inn Express.  The Double Metric follows the GT Highland course to the top of Potrero then follows its own course to the finish.

     The Triple, Quad, and Double-Double riders will pick up a new route slip when they reach the northern most point of the Double course.  They will then head north to Refugio and then back for an additional 100 miles to make 300 miles at the finish in Port Hueneme.  To get Double-Double credit the Triple must be completed in 24 hours or less.

     Quad and Double-Double riders will be given a final route slip for the last century to complete the 400 miles.

     The Double-Double credit will be given to those riders completing the Highland or Lowland route in 36 hours or less.

The Grand Tour Quad (Highland or Lowland), will remain a 24-hour event.
