Starting and ending at Around the Cycle in Pasadena, this hard, fun day of cycling attacks everything Los Angeles has to offer, and all within sight of Downtown. No cobblestones, but L. A.s’ equivalent: rugged, barely paved roads, dirt roads, single track, old trolley tracks, and stairs.  This annual rough roads/gravel Trofee pays tribute to Paris-Roubaix, probably the best-known rough road ride in the whole world! Starting and ending at Around the Cycle, this hard, fun day of cycling attacks everything Los Angeles has to offer, and all within sight of Downtown. No cobblestones, but L. A.s’ equivalent: rugged, barely paved roads, dirt roads, some single track, old trolley tracks, and stairs.

In keeping with the tradition of other epics, LA Roubaix has its share of climbing over a bunch of hills in the San Rafael Hills, Griffith Park, Elysian Park, and Montecito Heights and the Arroyo Seco and Los Angeles River waterways. You absolutely do not want to miss Telluride Street–you’ll want to do the long ride to see this beauty. Bring your CX Gravel Adventure or mountain bike, a Camelbak full of courage and legs of steel.
Riders can choose from varying distances of mixed-terrain routes from the Petit’ TROFEE 50km approximately 3,000 feet of climbing or the Grande TROFEE 75km adding classic LA climb sectors with over 5,000 feet of climbing. Based on demand we are also offering the 100km adding a bonus challenge sector 1,500 feet of climbing with over 6,000 feet of climbing or the newbie 25km 1,500 feet climb along the north portion of the route.

Ride will be SAG supported along the way! Bring your friends and let’s roll!

Beverages by Craftsmen Brewing and Sandoval Tacos on Wheels  will await all at the finishers!
