A 7.5-mile ride from Marina del Rey to the Playa del Rey. The ride rolls through shopping boulevards, residential streets and scenic views.

We’re back at the beautiful Marina del Rey for the Pedal to the Playa Community Ride. Join us for this ride by the coast on an easy, no-drop pace starting at Venice & Abbot Kinney Station. The 7.5-mile round trip will take us from a vibrant shopping boulevard through welcoming residential neighborhoods and protected bike lanes on the waterfront.

Designed to be supportive and beginner-friendly, this ride is perfect for new riders, families, first-time city bike users, or anyone looking for a practical and enjoyable way to access coastal destinations and waterfront paths.

Throughout the ride, we’ll practice safe biking practices and connect with fellow riders. We'll highlight Metro Bike as a reliable option to enjoying scenic coastal bikeways, public spaces, and natural areas along the Westside shoreline.
