POLO FIELDS: This is a loop beginning and ending at Inside Track in Ventura.  Inside Track is located at 38 W Main Street in Ventura.  There is parking located behind the store and along side streets. 

This ride takes you up the coast with breathtaking views of the ocean and the occasional wiff of a horrible smelling dumpster along the Rincon. The occasional site of dolphins more than make up for the smell of the dumpster. This ride is approximately 40 miles. This ride begins and ends at Inside Track in Ventura. The ride is mostly flat except for one small hill as you climb up to Bates road just past the county line heading north. There is some cycling that takes place along the freeway so in my rating below, this ride will receive a rating of moderate even though the terrain is appropriate for the beginner. Out and back options are available and the following is highly encouraged for beginners. After heading north and passing most of the Rincon by way of highway 1 (not much traffic), turn around at the fire station. This is about a 20 mile ride, round trip, to and from the fire station.

 Level of difficulty: Easy to moderate. Mostly flat however there is cycling on the freeway for those that go as far as Bates road. If you turn around at the fire station, this would be an easy ride.
