Dennis Crowley

An extraordinary bicycle advocate passed away last year.  Dennis Crowley's favorite place to ride was the Arroyo Seco where he dreamed of reviving the California Cycleway, an elevated bikeway developed by Pasadena Mayor Horace Dobbins at the beginning of the last century.

This Tour de Arroyo will honor the memory of Dennis Crowley and promote the vision of a bikeway for fun and commuting between Pasadena and downtown Los Angeles.

The Arroyo Seco

The Arroyo Seco has been called the most celebrated canyon in Southern California. This spectacular corridor with a gentle river flowing through it links downtown and Northeast Los Angeles with Pasadena and the San Gabriel Valley.

On this ride we'll tour the scenic hightlights of the Arroyo Seco on a gentle downhill ride of about ten miles from Pasadena to the Los Angeles State Historic Park near downtown. Riders can then take the return ride to the starting point with stops at some of the cultural gems of the Arroyo or return on the Gold Line train from the Chinatown Station.

It's a ride you'll always remember.
