Now, it’s a surreal gravel cycling route that blends raw terrain with powerful history. Learn about the dam’s tragic past, how to ride the area safely, and why this is one of the most meaningful bike rides in Southern California.

Saddle up, because this isn’t just a ride — it’s a journey through time.
