  • Group 2 - L3 (16 MPH to 18 MPH), Ride Leaders - Yi- Hwa & Carl Tank

  
  

  Start location: Manhattan Beach Pier (In front of Life Guard Station)

  Total: 25.5 miles elevation: 555 ft

  Destination: Roundtrip up to/from Ballona Creek and Centinela
  

  Ride with GPS map: Thursday Ballona Creek

  Description:  This ride starts at the Manhattan Beach Pier by the Life Guard station. The fast group will go first, then Group two follows. Both groups head north up to the Ballona Creek Bridge where we sometimes meet other riders. The groups then head east on the Ballona Creek Bike Path, terminating at Centinela Ave. We immediately turn around and return past the bridge to the Playa Del Rey Lagoon restrooms for some social time and a group photo. The group then does a loop around Westchester Parkway with possible sprints in both directions. Group 2 will sometimes short cut the loop on Westchester Blvd to catch up with Group 1. A regroup point after the loop exists at a turnout on Pershing, just southwest of the intersection with Westchester Blvd.   

  Some riders will sprint and we regroup several times, allowing for multiple fitness levels (L3, L2 & L1) to do the ride. The fast group's sprints on Ballona Creek and Westchester segments have been known to hit 25-28+ mph at times. If you're not a sprinter, don't worry - everyone waits at the Playa Del Rey lagoon regroup point.
  

  Regroups:

  1. Playa Del Rey Lagoon bathrooms.  
  2. Intersection of Pershing and Westchester Parkway

  Post ride coffee and refreshments at Cafe Bonaparte's on Pier Plaza in Hermosa Beach is why the ride is dubbed the "social ride"

       30 mi, 1656 ft, Park to Playa to Pump - Ride Leader : Bob Kellogg

  This ride combines two fun destinations: Kenneth Hahn State Park and the Inglewood Pump Track.  We leave MB Pier at 8:30.  There are a couple of segments before and in Kenneth Hahn that would be challenging for a beginner, but there are alternate routes.  This ride is probably best on a mountain bike, but is doable and fun on a gravel bike too.

  Unique destination! 
  
  Our third annual visit to 2430 Vasanta Way Los Angeles, CA 90068

  49.7 mi, 1427 ft, Hollywood Sculpture Garden - Ride Leader : Mario

  This is a hillside lot with ~148 steps to climb to fully explore the garden. You are strongly advised to bring supplementary footwear (e.g., sandals in a daypack). In addition, the owner (Dr. Robby Gordon) lets us into his home, where every nook and cranny has art works.
  

  The garden has 160+ sculptures made by various artists. This is a private residence made available for film shoots and events, as well as group visits such as ours. It's quirky and unique - exactly what we look for on an LA Explorer ride. We will spend ~45 minutes here.
  

  Please preregister to attend this ride; we want to give the owner a courtesy headcount. Expectation is 10-25 riders, but there could be more. There is no admission fee but a collection box will be available for donations.

• LA Explorer - Pepperdine Waves of Flags

  • When
    2025-09-16
  •  
    9:00 AM
  • Location
    Captain Kidd's, 209N Harbor Drive, Redondo Beach, CA 90277

  Annual destination!
  The 9/11 tribute at Pepperdine. We will ride up and spend 15-25 minutes among the ~3000 flags, one for every victim. Read about this annual display here.

  
  There is only one real hill on this ride but it's still almost 60 miles round trip, so please expect to return to the South Bay around 2:30pm or so.
  
  57.8 mi, 1101 ft, Pepperdine Waves of Flags display - Ride Leader : Mario

  
  

  Pace : L2
  Ride start is 9am, at the plaza just south of Captain Kidd's
  The Tuesday ride varies by design. If you want novelty, this is your ride. Routes vary between ~35-55 miles, 1000-3000 feet of climbing, typically in the middle third of the distance range (41-49 miles). If we go to an eating place, expect a "digestion pace" on the return.
  
  Often there is a destination (a vista point, climb, point of interest, etc). We often go to places that would be crowded on a weekend (eg, Hollywood Sign). We are usually done by 1-2pm, and a coffee or meal stop is customary (usually at the end; sometimes that's the destination).
