Prepare for 26.5 miles of uninterrupted climbing, stunning view and at the summit a warm apple pie at the cosmic cafe! There will be SAG support on this ride.
This climbing ride takes us up to the Mt. Wilson observatory, where we will treat ourselves to a mid ride snack at the Cosmic Cafe, which serves, arguably, the best Apple pie in SoCal!
This ride’s average gradient on the climbs is about 5%, which is comparable to that of GMR. If you have been training since the early part of the season, you need not worry. Less seasoned riders may find it challenging, but it is definitely doable.
There is Ample Paid parking at the starting point.
The route is at: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/46151857/
All skill levels are welcome! If any ride is too much, we will work with you on making sure you have alternatives to the entire route. You will have a great bike ride. That’s a win! And remember, safety is critical. We will be following all bicycling laws and regulations as well as COVID regulations.!
