Brief Description
Experience the surf, sand, and sounds of summer on this breathtaking bike ride along Southern California’s coastline with your gal pals! The Beach Babe Bicycling Classic starts in Long Beach, California, and is the ultimate girls-party on wheels with stunning costal views, amazing beach homes, great rest stops, tech support, and a Beach Party & Expotique at the finish line.
Two Beautiful Routes
Ride 36 or 15 scenic miles along beach bike trails and bike lanes. Course is essentially out and back, so you can turnaround at any time. You never leave the coast from Long Beach to Huntington Beach, with a party atmosphere the entire way.
Catered Rest Stops
Girl, we do it right! Delicious food and refreshments, European-style pastries, coffee, sandwiches, lemonade, fresh fruit and more! And, this is no beer-belly ride, so you won’t find a beer slosh at the finish. Save that for some other day. Or not! ; ) Our guys prefer a real six-pack.
Prizes & Finisher’s Medals
Over $3000 in prizes & custom finisher’s medals! This medal has a removable charm! Collect one every year, my dear!
Beach Party
Celebrate your finish with a beach-themed party with live music, prize giveaways, and light brunch. (Additional food tickets available for purchase). Hey, limbo anyone?
Boutique Women’s Expo at Finish
Enjoy a mini-shopping spree at the finish line expo with goodies women love.
Tech Support on Course
Each Rest Stop has tech support staff to fix flats or make adjustments. Good. One less thing to do.
Aqualink Water Taxi
Want a shortcut back to the finish? Pick up the Aquataxi at Alamitos Landing and boat your bike back to the finish! Mobile bike support is also available. Taking the Aquataxi will cost you $5 bucks. But we’ll still give you a finisher’s medal for getting back to the party on you own winning-ways.
Discount Hotel Stay
Hotel Maya offers discount rates to Beach Babes. Register early for the ride, book your room with an ocean view, and enjoy beach living for a weekend. Oh, and did we say if this place is good enough for an episode of Millionaire Matchmaker, it’s good enough for us? To get our discount rate, book online at www.hotelmayalongbeach.com and enter p40 in the promotion field for 15% off the current room rate. The sooner you book the better.
Beach Babe Branded Cycling Wear
Order jerseys, caps, gloves, wind vests or cute tees for your ride online and have them shipped to you before the event. If you miss the ship date (likely, because you wait!), we’ll reorder and mail them to you after the event. It’s not magic, folks — they are custom made.
