About Us
The Santa Barbara Triathlon Club is for multi-sport athletes of all abilities. Whether your goal is to complete your first sprint triathlon or the Hawaii Ironman, we train, race, offer encouragement, but most of all, have FUN! We work, play, and train in the beautiful coastal city of Santa Barbara, California.
Come visit us at our next meeting or join us on a training ride!
Upcoming Club Events

Join us for a group virtual ride on Zwift!
To make it easier than ever for club members to hang out and break a sweat together, we have created a SB Tri Zwift club for virtual group rides, runs and structured workouts. One of our club members, Ethan Culler, will be hosting virtual group rides every other Tuesday evening. Zwift group workouts are FTP-based, so the workout numbers will auto-adjust based on your FTP as it is set in Zwift. We will also be able to chat/talk to one another while doing the ride together!
You can join these events from the club view in the zwift companion app (for mobile devices).
