A Very Grinchy Group Ride, Saturday 12/20/2026

Attention Whos of the bike world:

The Grinch has escaped Mt. Crumpit and redesigned our Saturday ride.

We’ll roll along the coast enjoying cool temps and false confidence, right up until Temple Hills appears and steals our holiday cheer one switchback at a time. This is the queen stage of the day, equal parts climb, character building, and quiet internal negotiations.

As always, we tackle it together with plenty of laughs, dramatic breathing, and that moment where everyone stares at the pavement questioning their life choices. If the climb feels a little too Grinchy, we’ll review bail options before the ride because even holiday villains need an exit plan.

Dress festive, bring your best Who-ville attitude, and prepare for another Saturday of sweat, camaraderie, and slightly unhinged decision-making.

🗺️ Route

For anyone who wants to dodge part of the hill, we can talk options during the ride. The Grinch won’t judge… much.
