Altadena Community Bike Ride
Date: Sunday, October 26, 2025
Time: 9:00 AM
Location: Altadena, CA
Description:
Take a Sunday ride with us through Altadena’s streets and sunshine. This free community ride supports our Community Voices program at Lotus Rising LA, bringing neighbors together while raising awareness for families rebuilding after the wildfires.
Along the way, we’ll pause at local spots that share pieces of Altadena’s history. From neighborhood landmarks to stories that shaped the community, the ride is as much about learning as it is about moving together.
Bring your bike, water, and join us at 9am. We’ll ride together and finish by late morning. As a thank-you, riders who raise $75 or more will receive a Lotus Rising LA handkerchief.
Participation supports our work with wildfire survivors, helping families return home and move forward.
Fundraise for Families – Each rider will receive a link to set up a Givebutter page. Share it with friends and family to raise funds that support survivors.
Every dollar raised helps families return home and move forward. Whether you raise $25 or $250, your effort has an impact.
