For the Children - The 2019 Breakfast Burrito Ride

This is how the 2019 Belgian Waffle Ride weekend would begin, with another SoCal breakfast favorite, the burrito. The brainchild of Brandt Furgerson, aka Uncle Tio, the 2nd annual Breakfast Burrito Ride (BBR) would take place on the cloud covered morning of May 3. Hosted by Canyon Bicycles USA, the BBR is a no-drop, all smiles coastal roll from Carlsbad to the top of Torrey Pines and back. Just 35 miles in distance, the ride covers perhaps San Diego’s most popular strip of pavement. While not much dirt in sight (that will come on Sunday), the views and vibes through Carlsbad, Encinitas, Cardiff, Solana Beach and Del Mar can’t be beat.

But this ride is more than a chance to show off team kits for the many local clubs in attendance, this one is about the children. BBR t-shirts, 2nd only to the burritos, were the hottest item of the event. With 100% of proceeds going directly to the The Pablove Foundation, an organization “helping kids with cancer live a love-filled life today, anda cancer-free life tomorrow”.

We hope you enjoy our photo gallery from the ride! And be sure to pencil it in for next year.

We were thrilled to partner with the following brands to make the 2019 BBR a success!
