I've hiked to the top twice, 14 mile round trip from the gate if I recall properly. Mild steep at the start, long and flattish through marmot heaven, then the sad down part before final up part, gets a little steepish at the end. Probably the easiest 14K a person can do, though it can be a long day in the open sun. (got denied once due to snow and wind)
Might want to look into https://trailangellist.org/ for rides. I parked my truck at the endpoint (Forks) and found a "trail angel" who drove 2 hours each way so I'd have my truck when I hiked out, dropped me off at my hotel, picked me up the next day and drove me another 2 hrs to Lone Pine to pick up my permit, then to the Horseshoe Meadow trailhead. So at least 7 hours of driving on 2 different days. Her "payment" request was a hug, a selfie with her, and to sign her guest book!! I tried giving her a C-note and she freaked "no!", and reluctantly accepted $80. I must a have saved $400-600 minimum on a ride service.
The back of my car is too cluttered with reusable grocery bags to put two bikes in. Chavez ravine to South Bay seems like a lot of traffic I’d rather avoid. What about LA river bike path to Griffith park to loop around silverlake and back? Good mix of flat and hills with large portions of it closed to traffic and a lot of variations depending how we feel without the complication of shuttling.

The story has changed a bit over the years, or perhaps the details have simply been refined, but what I knew was this: three of my friends rode, well, hiked their bikes up...theradavist.com
Lower the Heavens: Attempting to Summit White Mountain – Erin Lamb & Matt Miller
We had set aside that Autumn weekend months earlier, just after having briefly met at a bike race called Lost and Found in late Spring. Matt was planning an extended bike commute through my town and asked to camp in my backyard. I told him sure, I have a fire pit, so it can really be like...

He doesn't want to get marked by someone recognizing his new steed. There'll be a thread about El Porto and like 700 people with between 100 and 1000 posts chime in with first-hand knowledge of which Lee burned who and what temp wax was on the 7'6" LazyBoy dropped unceremoniously to the ground so fisticuffs can proceed. I think the average weekday morning you could probably paddle past a dozen erBBers from the south end of the lot to the jetty.
