Hi everyone,
I'm looking forward to seeing y'all this Saturday at Griffith for our LA Riv meet-up! All riders are welcome, Riv bike owners or not. Originally, the meet-up was for 8 AM, but I want to push it back an hour to start in some warmer weather. If anyone isn't cool with this, we can always go back to the og time, just LMK.
As a reminder, here are the details:
When: 9 AM Where: Franklin's Cafe across from the Greek at 2650 N Vermont Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90027 Route: Loop around Vista del Valle to the Observatory around 10 mi with 1k ft. of climbing
Optional Extras: If people want, we can throw in a pie stop at House of Pies after the Observatory &/or add on the Hollywood Sign climb for folks who want to do some more climbing!
-Houston
I'm planning on attending as well. Also thinking about the "single scoop" for the LA Invitational.
I've marked my calendar.

Hi y'all,
Thank you for all of your feedback/responses! It's looking like May 27th has the highest level of availability! We can always adjust specifics closer to the date, but for now let's keep the morning/afternoon of the 27th open. As a tentative plan, let's meet at Franklin's Cafe across from the Greek at 8 am.
Isaac and Matt, I'm gonna try to make it out to the Cub House that weekend...it looks so sick!
So excited to meet everyone!
-Houston
Valley head checking in; I can't commit to any May dates but wanted rep the set.
I signed up for the 55 mile ride on Saturday and reserved a spot at the swap. It's a great event and everyone is super nice. The swap is really good too because sellers usually have interesting or high end items. -Matt

@isaac -- The Cub House events are right around the corner from me....excellent bike shop. And their community events are a blast. Definitely a great opportunity for a Pasadena ride especially since there are a ton of good coffee shops in the area.
@bryce -- Yep, that was orange Sam at Palomares Adobe. What a great location. My daughter and I were attending the 626 event and happened upon the grounds. Will definitely go back there with the rest of the family in the future. BTW, your Atlantis looks dialed in. Really love the handlebar setup, and will probably go that route once the Roaduno frames come out.
Griffith Park would be doable for me 20th or 27th.

Hi all –– Atlantis rider in the Pomona Valley here. I could likely make the 20th or the 27th, with a preference for the 27th.
Tony: I think that was my Atlantis you saw! I'd guess that was your parked orange Riv at the Palomares Adobe that I saw too. What a coincidence!
The Mt. Hollywood route is definitely a climb but it has some great payoff! I usually just take a break or two on my way up.

I can make it on the 13th or 27th. Also, I teach for a living so the schedule's wide open during the summer.

I am available on the 13th, but might be flexible on the 20th k. Of those 3 dates, I’m only available on the 27th, but my tricky schedule is not everyone else’s problem. I’ll join you if that ends up being the best date for all parties involved.
Brian Sent from my iPhone Yay, I'm loving hearing from y'all!
1. Anyone have a preference for May 13th, 20th, or 27th?
2. Regarding the route, it seems like most folks are out east, so Griffith seems like the best option.
Ted D.--point taken about Griffith + Hollywood sign not being very chill. So, probably best to just stick to griffith, but if anyone wants to ride to the Hollywood sign after, I'd be super down!
So, I'm thinking meet by the Greek and do a little loop up to Vista del Valle and around to the Observatory. This would be about 8 mi with ~1000 ft. of elevation. I don't ride in griffith a ton, so if anyone has route suggestions/food spots to hit up before/after...please share haha!

Count me in.
I'm in South Pasadena (orange Hillborne bought in 2009). Haven't browsed this forum in a few years, but decided to check in because I wanted to go on a group ride. Oddly enough, I saw a parked Atlantis at the 626 Golden Streets event yesterday. Seems like the perfect time to meet up with some other folks, especially since some of the newer Rivs look drastically different.
Cheers, Tony Hey all!I will be out of the country for about two weeks in MAY, but would love to join if I am in town. By no means should the scheduling be done around my availability.
Cheers! Ben

Depending on where most folks are located, I think it could be cool to do the Will Rogers inspiration loop in the Western Santa Monica's or a Griffith Park/Hollywood Sign moment. Regardless, it'd be a chill pace with a cafe stop or two thrown in.
I don't think I'm going to make it out that way in May. In fact, my LA daughter is planning to come here for a week. I'll watch the thread with interest, though. As for the route ... I can't imagine Griffith Park/Hollywood Sign being a very "chill" ride - that's a lot of climbing! But it's beautiful and fun.
