PROGRESSIVE HILL CHALLENGE 2.
Another picturesque Palos Verdes switch back ride. We will start our ride in Manhattan Beach from Helen’s Cycles. Ride through Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach and Redondo Beach.
Make a Quick Pit Stop at Malaga Cove Market (check out the Beautiful Fountain). Roll out of the pit and begin our way to Palos Vedras EAST . Start the 3 mile climb up the Gorgeous rolling hills of PV East. On the down hill, we have switch backs and rolling hills along the cost, working our way to the next Pit at Starbucks/Subway at PV & Hawthorn to enjoy the Beautiful Ocean View. From the pit we will work our way back to Helen’s Cycles with well deserved down hills. With all rides please bring two water bottles.
Parking at Helen’s, please use parking in the back of Helen’s Cycle.
