This is a 150k ride that begins in Azusa. It is a pretty flat ride that starts with a loop around the west San Gabriel Valley, then makes a trip down to Seal Beach. The route uses the San Gabriel and Rio Hondo river trails, aka the Emerald Necklace. It finishes at the Congregation Ale House in Azusa for some post-ride food and beverage on the patio.
This ride is part of our Rouleur Series. To earn the Rouleur Award you need to do populaires with lengths of 100k (actually anything from 100-124k), 125k (actually 125-149k), and 150k (actually 150-199k); plus a 200k brevet and a Dart populaire. If you finish all these rides in 2026, PCH Randos will present you with this spiffy patch from RUSA:
