SouthBay Trikkers is proud to announce the Second Annual Halloween Trikke & Treat Ride in Torrance, California.

It's a FREE ride so grab a costume, a Trikke, and fellow rider for a festive cruise along our beautiful coast to see the wonderful decorations along the strand. Everyone is dressed up, even the volleyball players are in the holiday spirit. It is incredibly fun and the memories will last forever. Come join us in trikker fellowship... It's Free to Ride!

The Trikke & Treat Ride kicks off at 10am from Miramar Park, at the south end of the Esplanade Torrance Beach and travel along the strand heading north. will loop up to the end of Hermosa Beach Strand and return.

As an option to commemorate the 2nd Annual Trikke & Treat Ride, we have an amazing package deal offer. Complete with T-shirt, Lunch, and entry to the Poker Run for the Grand Prize of a Trikke Hydration Pack.  All this for $20. Now that's a great deal right!

There will also be a prize for the best costume and entry into the raffle at no cost. Don't be shy, be creative!


And for those of you who cannot make the ride but would still like to purchase a shirt, we have made them available to you. Shirts will ship the week of Halloween. T-Shirt only is $15. (add $2 if shipping) You can always come by and pick up your shirt to save on costs.

Join us for the ride. Remember there is NO FEE to ride.

The ride will begin from check point 1 (starred on the map), Miramar Park, Torrance at 10am. We will head north along the strand to Redondo Beach Pier. We walk through the pedestrian area, then mount our Trikke's back on the path through the open garage towards the 2nd check point Cap'n Kidds.

Here we cross the street and travel north along Hermosa Ave. This is a very wide area to carve for all of us. At Herondo Ave, we hop back across the street onto the strand and move to check point 3, Hermosa Beach Pier.

We continue to the end of the Hermosa strand and stop for photos. Some may want to go to Manhattan Beach pier, thats an option once we get there for whomever wants it. From here it's pretty much everything in reverse.

Now the check points keep ascending in order at the same spots. ie. Check points 1&6, 2&5, 3&4 are all the same. Hope that makes sense. The loop as you see it is 9mi round trip, close to 12mi if you include Manhattan Beach.

The Terrain is relatively flat since you're at the beach. The wind may pickup on the return trip. There are a couple of great hills at the starting point for whomever wants that challenge. The ride should last about 3 hours.

We will start the ride from the parking lot just south of Miramar Park in Torrance at 10am. This is right on the beach where Hollywood Riviera, Palos Verdes, and Torrance collide. Follow this map for turn by turn directions.

The Poker Run will be conducted throughout the entire ride. It's very simple and a lot of fun. This is how it will work. Once you've registered at the Pit Stop you'll receive your first card. At every check point along the way, you will receive another card. At the end of the ride you will have 5 cards. At the Pit Stop you will be allowed to exchange cards for a better hand. Then it's Game On! The Trikker with the best hand will carve off into the sunset with an awesome Trikke Hydration Pack!!!
