The Los Angeles River Ride on June 6th is really numerous great rides. Rides will range from easy, for kids and families… to very challenging, for lovers of distance and a pounding heart.
Participants in six rides organized by the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition (LACBC) will start in Griffith Park. The easy rides will stay close to Griffith Park, but the two main rides will direct cyclists south along the L.A. River bike path to Long Beach, and then return north to Griffith Park.

And… some of us living in the Long Beach area plan a ‘Reverse Ride’ that will start in Long Beach, heading north up the Los Angeles River bike path, cycling all the way to Griffith Park, and then cycling back to Long Beach.
To be sure, on Sunday the 6th, the Los Angeles River bike path, and the local pit stop (Shoreline Aquatic Park near the Aquarium) will be lively with bicycles, laughter, fast cycling, slow cycling, and people to meet of all ages.
Ride registration is no longer open, so if you didn’t sign up for the LACBC’s ride by now it’s too late for that, yet you are still welcome to come on down, to cheer riders and in other ways enjoy some cycling fun.
The Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition, like Long Beach Cyclists, embraces advocacy and education. The L.A. River Ride is the LACBC’s largest annual event.
