Information 
We will meet at Padua Park in Claremont , gather and do ourdrive briefing - from there we make a couple of quick turns and we are onto Mount Baldy Rd. and then onto Glendora Ridge Rd. - hop over onto Glendora Mountain Rd (toward Camp Bonita Rd.) Left on East Fork and over to Hwy 39 to Crystal Lake. We can park and Picnic at Crystal Lake and then enjoy the drive down Azusa Canyon back to the 210 fwy.

It doesn’t get much better than the 19km single lane rollercoaster that is Glendora Ridge Road. The road winds across the top of a high ridge and often teeters on the knife edge. It offers a never-ending assault on your senses as you swoop down, with massive views of immense canyons, wooded mountain peaks, rugged river valleys and the coastal plains of LA. It’s also awesome fun: you descend on a pitch that’s enough to make you feel fast and strong but still allows you to pedal through the corners. It seems incredible that such a place exists just 15 or so kilometres (as the crow flies) from the urban sprawl of the Los Angeles basin.
Could Glendora Ridge Road be the world’s best ridge road? We think so… 

Looking forward to seeing you all!!
