Saturday, September 27, 2025: The East Pasadena Ride
The ride will be about 11 miles with about 400 feet of elevation gain, and will include some uphill sections.
This is NOT a ride for beginners! Night rides are crowded and although no one is ever left behind, there is some elevation gain and we will be riding about two hours total. If you haven't been on a bike for a while, we recommend our Beginners' Bagel Rides - the next one is Sunday, September 21st at 9:00 am.
Please note you MUST sign a waiver when you arrive. Helmets are required for all riders. No training wheels permitted. Children riding on their own should remain with parents at all times, have experience riding with a group, and be able to average 12 mph. Younger children and/or pets are welcome so long as they are riding safely in a trailer, on a family cargo bike, etc.
Bike lights front (white) and rear (red) are required(see below)
