Every month, LA Critical Mass brings thousands of cyclists together to celebrate community, movement, and the freedom of the open road. Today, we’re excited to expand that experience beyond the city as we officially partner with Tour de Big Bear — a premier mountain event offering road cycling routes, MTB challenges, and family‑friendly rides designed for cyclists of all levels.

LA Critical Mass is proud to announce a new partnership with Tour de Big Bear, one of California’s most celebrated and professionally organized cycling events. This collaboration marks an important milestone for our community as we continue expanding opportunities for cyclists to experience world‑class rides beyond Los Angeles.

Tour de Big Bear is known for its stunning mountain scenery, crisp alpine air, and a ride experience that blends challenge, beauty, and top‑tier support. Cyclists can choose from multiple route distances designed for every level — from recreational cyclists looking for a scenic challenge to seasoned endurance athletes seeking a high‑elevation test. With fully staffed aid stations, hydration stops, mechanical support, and a strong safety infrastructure, Tour de Big Bear has earned a reputation as one of the most enjoyable and well‑run cycling events in the region.

Through this partnership, LA Critical Mass participants will gain access to exclusive group registration discounts, allowing our cyclists to sign up together and save as a crew. Tour de Big Bear will be providing us with a custom registration code, which we will share as soon as it is issued. This is a major benefit for our community, especially for those planning to ride as teams or large groups.

This collaboration gives our cyclists the chance to experience a completely different environment from the city streets — wide mountain roads, fresh air, and panoramic views that make Big Bear one of California’s most iconic cycling destinations. It’s an opportunity to challenge yourself, ride with friends, and enjoy a professionally supported event that delivers a memorable experience from start to finish.

We encourage all LA Critical Mass cyclists to explore the route options, review the event details, and start preparing for an unforgettable day in the mountains. Whether you’re aiming for a personal milestone, riding for fun, or joining your crew for a group challenge, Tour de Big Bear is an event that brings out the best in every cyclist.

More information, registration details, and our official discount code will be posted soon. Stay tuned — and get ready for Big Bear.
