HPE will once again be hosting our iconic bi-annual Architectural Bike Ride during Modernism Week! What better way to tour through architecturally significant neighborhoods in Palm Springs than by bike? Join us as we pedal past and highlight midcentury homes while soaking in that Southern California sunshine–this is the perfect time of year to do it!

Hop on your bike and join us for a fun and scenic ride through Palm Springs, highlighting iconic architecture and clean energy. We’re using HPE as our home base this year, and after the ride, we’ll keep the good vibes going with some live music and light bites.

For those of you who wish to explore on your own, we will be providing an electronic copy of the map on our website, and the route will be clearly marked with arrows for an additional week after the tour. The route will also be available on the biking app, Strava.

Although HPE hosts this event, we DO NOT provide bikes. Please bring your own or contact Big Wheel Tours to rent one: agata@bwbtours.com or (760) 548-0500. Bikes are available by prior reservation only; they will fit you at the time of check-in.

Hot Purple Energy is a local energy company in the Coachella Valley that values and celebrates the architecture in Palm Springs by designing and installing systems in ways that preserve the architectural integrity of homes.
