A great half-day journey, including the trip from L.A., Glendora Ridge Road is a treat.

The Skinny

  • Where: Glendora Ridge Road, up in the San Gabriel Mountains above Upland, Claremont, La Verne and Glendora, Calif. Take the Mountain Avenue exit off the 210 Freeway in Upland (about 45 minutes from downtown Los Angeles), follow the signs to Mt. Baldy and turn left just as you enter Mt. Baldy Village.
  • Why: Incredible riding and scenery.
  • Best Kept Secret: The Mt. Baldy Lodge just north of Glendora Ridge Road in Mt. Baldy Village. Try the tuna melt!
  • Scenic Route: They’re all scenic. You can retrace your ride back to Mt. Baldy Village, or take either the East Fork Road or Glendora Mountain Road back down to civilization. You won’t be disappointed with any of these rides.
