De Luz!, a definite hidden gem in our riding repertoire! With its beautiful views and solid climbs, there is challenge and respite for all. The quiet tree-lined roads of De Luz are a treat. Getting there and back to Rouleur are part of the fun too. Don’t miss this ride! If you haven’t ridden in the area before, you’ll see what we’re talking about.
Be ready to take care of yourself and be sure to load the route to your GPS device. De Luz is not a place to make a wrong turn if you get left behind. Cell phone reception is unreliable. Please plan on hydration and nutrition that are appropriate for a ride like this.
We start at Rouleur Brewing in Carlsbad. Bathrooms will open at 7:30 AM. This is the last of our Swamdo training rides series.
