Bike the Coast advertised five route lengths for its Oct. 24 Oceanside event, ranging from seven to 100 miles. The organizer's route guide placed the starts near Oceanside Pier and described distinct options for shorter-distance riders and those heading down the coast. Organizer's route guide
The seven- and 15-mile courses used the San Luis Rey River Bike Path for most of their distance. The 25-mile route headed south through Carlsbad to a turnaround at Moonlight Beach in Encinitas.
The 50-mile course continued through Solana Beach and Del Mar before turning around on Sorrento Valley Road. The century option used two loops of that route.
Organizers also advertised a finish festival with food, music, a beer garden and a sports expo. The route guide directed riders to follow official event-day signage and directions rather than relying solely on GPS overview files.
