These are the routes we scheduled
to train for past Onyx Summit Challenges.
More than “Long Plus” rides,
these routes will get you used to climbing.

BCI riders who accept the challenge gathered above Redlands and climbed Highway 38 toward the
Onyx Summit at 8,443’ and back…
Three ‘out-and-back’ challenges to choose from:
I: To Angelus Oaks - 17 miles, 2,300' Map/Profile
II: To Greyback Amp. - 35 miles, 3,800' Map/Profile
III: To Onyx Summit - 55 miles, 6,400' Map/Profile

These training routes all have Route Slips - and RideWithGPS links for map, profile, Cuesheet and ability to upload to your gps or run on the app on your phone.

ROADS CHANGE - THESE ROUTES MAY BE OUTDATED IF NOT RECENTLY POSTED and we can’t guarantee the route is still undisturbed by road work or new options, and we can’t assume any responsibility if you choose to follow any of them as a club ride or on your own, and the Members’ supplemental insurance does not cover you if you ride these when not scheduled by the club.
