Who is invited?

Everyone who wants to have fun riding a recumbent trike or bike and we also welcome 2 wheel upright riders. 

Riders can be of different speed and endurance levels as we will run 2 groups as required.

When and where do you ride?
  • Rides will be run on the third Saturday of every month.
  • Locations will vary and will be posted on this website   and our facebook page 3 weeks in advance. 
  • Locations will be the coast in Summer months and move to the desert in the winter.
  • Every effort will be made to keep rides on trails, low traffic streets, bike paths  and sidewalks as much as possible. We will make efforts to stay off busy streets.
How much do the rides cost?

They are basically free, but on occasion if a special knowledge guide is required they may be a tour cost.

Do you need prior experience to enjoy these tours?

No, just bring your trike or bike and a big smile. This is a fun group and people exposing their political agendas will need to find a different group. 

Loaner Trikes through Let’s Trike will be available for new riders and out of towners visiting Southern California. 

At least 72 hours notice must be given to Dallas at Let’s trike in order to accommodate.  phone or Text him at -1951-534-7416.

What about safety guidelines & helmets?

Safety is a priority adhering to road safety rule is compulsory. While helmets cannot be mandated we encourage everyone to ride with one as many in the group have had experiences with 2 and 3 wheel crashes and contrary to some opinions we are not bullet proof.
