So you have reached the Y atop Glendora Mountain Road and East Fork Road, and you see a small road trailing off to the east along the ridge of foothills. Take this and you’ll end up in Baldy Village, the quiet lil town nestled below Mt. Baldy. The views along this road can be superb depending on which way you come in from. I you ride for west to east, you have a near endless view of Mt. Baldy, which may be snow capped depending on the time of year.
On a technical standpoint, Glendora Ridge Road could be a fun ride depending on your crazy factor. See, the road is only wide enough for two vehicle to pass semi-comfortably. The roadway does not contain any lane designation so be wary of potential wrong way riders and drivers. There are plenty of fun twisties both tight and sweeping. But be warned, it’s called Glendora Ridge Road for a reason, you’re on a ridge so a spill could be deadly.
All in all, Glendora Ridge Road has the potential to be fun, but the greater potential to be dangerous. I wouldn’t openly and willingly suggest this route as the everyday Sunday ride. If you do decide to venture along this road, please exercise the utmost caution. I would even advise refraining from high speeds or knee dragging. You may never know who or what is around that bend.
