Pasadena Senior Games Cycling Races Return to El Dorado Park June 17-18

The annual Pasadena Senior Games Cycling races will be held on Tuesday, June 17 and Wednesday, June 18, 2025 at Long Beach’s beautiful El Dorado Park. Pasadena Senior Games is part of a nationwide program of multi-sport Olympic-style athletic events for adults 50+.

Pasadena Senior Games Cycling events include 5K & 10K Time Trials and 20K & 40K Road Races. Cycling Road Race events for older adults are rare across the country. Of the seven different regional Senior Games in California, Pasadena’s is the only one that currently hosts Cycling Road Race. The garden setting of El Dorado Park, and the safety aspects of this closed course away from street traffic, makes this a favorite competition for older cyclists.

Cost to register is $45 athlete fee plus $20 per event. Online registration is open through June 12 and race day registration will be available.

Pasadena Senior Games are both competitive and inclusive. There is no pre-qualification necessary, and novice competitors are welcome along with elite athletes.

 

Medals are awarded to age categories in five-year increments (from 50-54 up to 90+) for men and for women. Fun, welcoming, and run in accordance with national standards, Pasadena Senior Games is an annual coming-together of people from around the region that creates community, reinforces a sense of belonging, forges friendships, and sometimes even sets sports records.

Pasadena’s Games, celebrating 32 years in 2025, are produced by the Pasadena Senior Center. These Games are part of a broader mission to promote healthy aging, fitness, and social engagement.

For 65 years, Pasadena Senior Center’s mission has been to improve the lives of older adults through caring service with opportunities for social interaction, fitness programs, basic support and needs services, education, volunteerism and community activism. With 10,000 Americans per day becoming older adults, the center is a leader in addressing issues of aging and provides innovative, cutting-edge, nationally recognized programs for this population group.

 

As a donor-supported nonprofit, the center operates without any local, state or federal funding and provides more services to older adults than any other organization in the San Gabriel Valley. Hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon.
