Special guest rider
Cannondale-CyclocrossWorld.com Pro Stephen Hyde coming off a successful CX season representing the USA at CX Worlds! This ride also brings out many of SoCal's notables :)
We are offering three options this Spring: the TROFEE LUNCH ROUTE and two shorter BRUNCH ROUTES. All three serve up kilometers of exciting adventure riding on a mix of dirt and pavement via the Los Virgenes open space rolling hills of flowing trails and double track, Part two pof the loop includes Topanga Summit to Summita and dirt Mulholland!
CX bikes are optimal for the mixed terrain. Gearing made for climbing is a plus and MTB hard tails work great for the trail sections. Road bikes recommend larger tires.
Route Options:
GRANDE TROFEE - LUNCH ROUTE: 70km - 4,800+ feet of climbing!
PETITE TROFEE1 - LITE BRUNCH ROUTE: 34km - 2,100+ feet of climbing!
Route will be the part one of the Grande Trofee Lunch Route: Los Virgenes Open Space plus bonus intro singletrack.
PETITE TROFEE2 - BIG BRUNCH ROUTE: 36km - 2,700+ feet of climbing!
Route is part two of the Trofee Lunch Route including more road and more climbing via Topanga Summit to Summit and DIrt Mulholland to paved for the final road home.

2016 SOCAL GRAVEL TROFEE SERIES: This ride is part of the SoCalCross Gravel Trofee Series and is the first of five themed gravel rides this Spring into Summer. Trofee events are timed/creatively scored rides and will be tabulated at the end of the season for overall finisher prizes and the winner Trofees!
Notes: THIS IS NOT A RACE. We ride to enjoy our open space and challenge ourselves in an incredible environment. We are obligated to yield the right of way to ALL other trail users. In fact, STOP and DISMOUNT when horses are near. The caretakers of these open spaces have been very gracious to allow this event. So lets return the favor and be kind. We obey all traffic laws and common sense.
