Would the Louie Pompei Sports Park be a good place to park my car while riding GMR?
Thanks

I don't know anything about that park, but there's nothing wrong with parking in the residential area at the base of GMR, or at the dirt parking lot farther up before the curves begin.
We always park at the corner of Foothill and Lonehill in the Stater Bro parking lot. It's a couple of miles away from GMR but it gives you a little warm up before climbing

I always park at Encanto Park in Duarte. It's about 10 miles to the base of GMR, but is a convenient spot if you do the GMR-East Fork-39 loop.
