One can’t always follow Google maps for one’s bicycle route, but Strava can be good for a laugh. #bikelifeLA #bikesky #losangeles

I went on an All Clubs ride last week. It was great being in a big group of a hundred cyclists that all ride at a road bike speed. To the Korean Friendship Temple in San Pedro the group stuck together, on the way back-like any group ride- we were more spread out.

This one is a look down 22nd st so #palisadesfire looks close to Will Roger’s but not as far as Sullivan trail?

I updated the BikeLifeLA feed. It’s all things bicycle riding around Los Angeles.

I removed the word “ride” from the keywords as it kept giving results for all sorts of rides: horse, train, football teams? etc. added more LA Area places and made it faster

Taking the C-line from Duarte a couple of teens brought their Surrons aboard. We chatted and I asked if they were concerned about getting a citation from the police since they aren’t street legal. The not-shy one said “don’t know, we don’t hang around that long”

The first thing I noticed was the low car volume. Looking at it again he is on a road bike. Then looking at the filming date of the LA river bike path video.. We had the start of a global pandemic around that time. He’s probably trying to get a last ride before the lockdowns.

The San Gabriel river trail in #LosAngeles is a true multi modal solution. Horses and bikes have dedicated paths while turkey vultures patrol overhead to feed off fallen bikers. Urban planning meets natural selection​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
