NotesSuccessor event to AIDS/LifeCycle on the LA side. 2026 inaugural ride raised ~$830,511 with ~300 cyclists. IMPORTANT: official site now describes the route as 'Ride from Los Angeles to Ojai, camp with your friends, and cruise back along the coast' - i.e., the 2027 route appears to be an LA-Ojai-LA loop rather than LA-to-San Diego. Finish-line festival location listed as TBD. Official site (Oct 1, 2026) pitches the Ojai stop as 'Queer Summer Camp' (swimming, canoeing, lakeside DJ set); Register Now buttons live, no sell-out notice seen.
