Los Angeles Wheelmen Grand Tour June 27, 2026

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

 

The 67th Annual Grand Tour will be held on June 27, 2026.  With the minor exception of the northern terminus of the Double-Double, Triple, and Quad routes, the route(s) remains the same as in previous years.  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 rest stop in Carpinteria.  They will head north to Refugio and then back for an additional 100 miles to make 300 miles at the finish in Port Hueneme.  

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.

An often-asked question about the Grand Tour is do we provide a RWGPS file?  Per our club and insurance carrier policy a RWGPS file is not provided.

Clarification of the Double-Double credit

The Double-Double is the same route as the Quad.  The difference is you have 36 hours to finish the total distance of 400 miles instead of 24 hours.  It begins with the Grand Tour Triple then the final hundred after that.  You will get credit for the distance covered.  Two hundred or four hundred miles.
