La Tuna Canyon - NIGHT RIDE -

I am just planning on doing the fire road out and back. This will be a nice weekday workout. Based upon my performance on my first run on this trail I can promiss you that this will be a slow ride to the top. I will be taking breaks and basically just taking my time to enjoy the nightime LA Skyline.

This would be a good ride for a beginner ready for a sweet workout.

Lights are MANDATORY!!!

Being this is a fire road, you do not need expensive killer offroad bike lights, but you just need something brighter than anything you'd find at Walmart. Oh Yeah... Tail Light mandatory also.

If you have any questions regarding the effectiveness of your light set, please call or e-mail me your question.
I do have One extra tail light if anyone needs to use it. First come first served.

Distance: Approx. 6 Miles
Pedal Time: Approx 1:15
Total Time: Approx 2:00
Climbing: Approx 1,800 Ft.

You can call me if you have any quesitons.

Please be ready to roll-out at 7:00

See ya then!

Wow, that was fun. LA is beautiful from that high up at night. I had a little mechanical issue, but got it rigged in 10 minutes and we were on our way. No crashes, no more mechanical issues and everybody had fun. This climb is getting easier too, thank god!!! It was nice meeting all of you last night. I'm gonna make this a weekly night run, I just need to figure out which day. Keep your looking balls peeled.
