Chain Gang: Rose Bowl To San Marino Loop
35 Miles Rolling Hills with Gradual Climbs
Ride ID 2584
Meet: 8:00 AM
Ride-Out: 8:30 AM
Rain Cancels
Join the Chain Gang for a lovely loop through Pasadena and beyond, all the way to Duarte and back. We meet at the Rose Bowl Aquatic Center and head out into beautiful South Pasadena, through the quiet wide streets of San Marino and Arcadia all the way to our turn around point at Encanto Park in Duarte (water and bathrooms available). On the way back, we make a pit stop at Goldstein’s Bagels in Arcadia before passing through a few of the San Gabriel Valley cities back to the Rose Bowl. With only a few rolling hills, this ride is fairly flat and a fun and picturesque way to test your endurance. We will have plenty of TRLs to support you!
MEETING POINT: We will be meeting in Parking Lot I near the Aquatic Center
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.!
Reach out with any of your questions or concerns. You really can do this.
