Join Shifting Gears powered by CYCLEBAR for a Hill Climbing Extravaganza! We will ride to Palos Verdes through the South Bay Beach Area. Our first quick pit stop will be at Malaga Cove followed by the first of 3 3-mile climbs – a beautiful 3 mile climb up Granvia Altamira.
The second climb will be the switchbacks of PV Drive East followed by the final climb up Hawthorne from the ocean side. We will have a pit stop at Starbucks/ Subway before we start our final 3-mile climb up Hawthorne. After a nice downhill, we will continue back to CYCLEBAR in CULVER CITY.
PLEASE be prepared for your rides! Bring 2 tubes, energy bar, water & electrolyte replacement, make sure your tires are pumped and you are ready to ride.
