About the Ride

John McLaughlin was involved in a fatal cycling accident last year on Pacific Coast Highway. He was a dear friend and ride buddy to many LATC members and cyclists from other local groups.

We will ride in remembrance of John and to promote safe riding on one of the most dangerous roads in America.

Please BE EXTRA CAUTIOUS when crossing PCH and throughout the ride. Safety will be our top priority.
