Sunday June 21

Join the Trudging Buddies for a classic Westside training ride featuring two LA favorites: Franklin Canyon and Mandeville Canyon.

We’ll roll out from West Hollywood, warm up with the scenic climb through Franklin Canyon, then make our way to the iconic Mandeville Canyon before cruising back together. Expect a steady pace, plenty of regroup points, and supportive teammates every step (and pedal stroke) of the way.

This is a no-drop ride, but riders should be comfortable climbing at their own pace. We’ll regroup at the top of each climb so no one gets left behind.

Please arrive by 8:00 AM so we can get everyone checked in, go over any ride details, and roll out promptly at 8:30 AM.

One of the best parts of recovery? Rediscovering the things that bring us joy. 🧡

And finding new ones — surrounded by a community you can trust.

That’s what Trudging Buddies is all about: a safe place to show up, try something new, and breathe a little easier. This Saturday, that looks like yoga.
