Monday Gravel Ride - Santa Maria River Road

The Santa Maria River gravel road runs along the river between Highway 15 (the road to Bagdad) and Highway 93. Last time we did this ride we made a few excursions to the river for a total of 31 miles and about 1900' of climbing. It's a beautiful ride with very little traffic, making the drive to the start worth it. I think we saw 3 cars/trucks last time. If we're lucky we'll see wildflowers.

Meet just before the bridge that runs over the Santa Maria river. There is a gravel area on the left before you get to the bridge. The bridge is on Highway 15, about 10 miles past the turn off to Hillside.
