Due to possible road closure, unhealthy air, and low response, the ride has been changed to a PV ride from Helen’s. Specific route in PV TBD by whoever is there.

This spectacular ride is about 57 miles long, and if you look at the Elevation profile, you’ll see that it’s mostly uphill on the way out and mostly downhill on the way back. Funny how that works! About 6200 feet of climbing. The steepest sections are shown as 6% and the pavement is generally good.

Meet at Encanto Park in Duarte at 8:15 for an 8:30 am roll. This is a convenient and pleasant starting point and allows about 6.5 miles of warm-up before the real fun begins. Allow about 40 minutes from the 10/405 (SM/SD) freeway intersection. A suggested route from WLA to get there is shown on this link:
