Race Location

LOCATION: Lakeview Park at Irvine Lake, Santiago, CA (Directions)

THE “OTH” MAGIC CONTINUES- This is the RACE FOR EVERYONE; what began in 2009 was MAGIC.  We have live, breathe and love the race day magic of Over the Hump at Irvine Lake, and we continue to be passionate about serving the Orange, Riverside, Los Angeles and San Diego racers that are family, with a central race location.

What began as a dream to provide a to connecting experience for the mountainbike community continues to galvanize YOUR people. If you haven’t been here ever or in a while we doubt you’ll be able to stay away after you come this year.

What: RD Memorial and Men’s Fellowship Ride(s)
Where: Riding in Aliso Woods Canyon (and beyond) – Meeting at parking lot at bottom of Wolverine Way

Order your breakfast burrito here: https://form.jotform.com/LinkedCycling/burrito (PLEASE have your burrito order placed by Friday, 9am)

One year ago, on December 9, 2023, Linked Cycling founder, friend, and brother in Christ, Ryan Damato went home to be with the Lord. His loss has been profound, and to say he is missed would be a vast understatement. Ryan always had a heart for the unsaved and he seized every opportunity to share our need to be right with our Creator on His terms, not ours.

This Saturday will be the first annual RD Memorial Ride in concert with our normal Fellowship Ride. To honor Ryan, we will be supporting Giving Children Hope (GCH), a non-profit organization that supports children and families to break their cycle of need and guiding them towards success and self-sustainability. Every year GCH opens their warehouse to families whereby children bring in a Christmas gift list, and volunteers go into the warehouse to fulfill them, and wrap them so that they have “something” to open for Christmas. We reached out to GCH to find out what their greatest need was, and their response was “gift cards” (suggested $25) for the forgotten teens and older kids. So, in lieu of a toy drive, we will be asking for people to bring a gift card from Target or another store that will allow the teens to pick something up for themselves and we will donate them to GCH in Ryan’s name.
