August Night Ride 2025

The most FUN way to beat the heat is a night ride! Join the lit-up crew as we explore iconic locations and undiscovered neighborhoods in Pasadena under the stars! End your evening with tater tots at Dog Haus!

Saturday, August 16, 2025: The Mystery Ride

The ride will be about 10 - 12 miles with about 500 feet of elevation gain, and will include some uphill sections, but nothing too steep.

This is NOT a ride for beginners! Night rides are crowded and although no one is ever left behind, there is some elevation gain and we will be riding about two hours total. If you haven't been on a bike for a while, we recommend our Beginners' Bagel Rides - the next one is Sunday, September 21st at 9:00 am.

Please note you MUST sign a waiver when you arrive. Helmets are required for all riders. No training wheels permitted. Children riding on their own should remain with parents at all times, have experience riding with a group, and be able to average 12 mph. Younger children and/or pets are welcome so long as they are riding safely in a trailer, on a family cargo bike, etc.
