For February’s Club Supported Ride (CSR), join us on a flat ride down the San Gabriel River Trail to Sunset Beach!
DESCRIPTION OF RIDE
Legg Lake Start Option 1: We'll start at Legg Lake in the Whittier Narrows recreation area and make our way South to Seal Beach, then to Sunset beach. Then we turn around and head back to Legg Lake for lunch! If you haven't had the chance to do this route yet, it's a great way to get a new perspective on the city due to its unique path through the different neighborhoods along the San Gabriel River. We look forward to a great ride with you all!
Encanto Park Start Option 2: You’ll start at Encanto Park in Duarte and head down to Legg Lake to start with the group to head to Sunset Beach. You’ll turn around and head back to Legg Lake for the lunch stop and then back to Encanto Park.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:
-
All riders should be prepared to do minor repairs on the road (e.g., change a flat)

Due to the challenging nature of most club supported rides, groups will invariably form and split up en route depending on riders levels of fitness, training goals, etc.
-
For your safety, a helmet is mandatory on PAA rides.
-
Check the forum and event page before the ride, in case of inclement weather which may result in a change of the route or cancellation of the event.
-
Guests are welcome, but must also RSVP (guest ticket), sign a ride waiver, and make a $10 donation at the start of the ride.
