Looking back at the ascent
from a high Angeles ridgeline

Street shop ride leader Craig Leonard,
ascending the Angeles, back in his
rebel GS days...

Come explore the local high country on a long ridge run. Weather permitting, we will spend the day taking in the views both north & south, from the edge of the L.A. basin to Gorman.

November's R2 ride ended up with 4 short R3-4 sections. The December ride, by comparison, is expected to cover terrain that is generally just a bit more challenging than the vast majority of November's (R1-2) terrain, but will likely not include sections as challenging as the most difficult portions of the November ride. There will, however, be short sections where parallel trails offer heightened challenge for more experienced riders.

Lunch will be at a restaurant stop near the middle of the ride.

A little snow never hurt anybody
(if they were careful!)

A lot of snow will send us elsewhere
(snow is not R3!).

Winter weather is almost as challenging to plan a GS ride around as southern California fire season is! Snow in the Angeles will drive us into the Los Padres or lower. Updated information on a ride change will be posted here if necessary. Be advised; neither sleet nor snow nor storms of fire shall stop a BMW shop GS ride from happening - it may redirect it, or up the difficulty rating, however! always feel free to contact EarthRider if weather-related (or indeed any) questions arise as a ride date approaches.
