Join us for November's Club Supported Ride (CSR): Big T Lollipop on Sunday, November 17 a challenging and beautiful ride over the San Gabriel Mountains and up the far side to Angeles Crest Highway. You will be surrounded by peaks over 6,000' as you wind your way up and over Clear Creek Junction.  You will enjoy the long rolling turns along Angeles Forest Highway as you work your way out to the base of Upper Big Tujunga Canyon.  This section is where the work is as you will have many rises and descents along the way, but it is mostly uphill to ACH amid a more dense section of trees.  Then it's ACH back to Red Box where we'll have lunch, provided by your SAG team. An easy descent back to Descanso Gardens and you will have been able to experience some the grandeur and beauty of the San Gabriel Mountains!
