Interested bike riders in Lincoln Heights, El Sereno, or Boyle Heights?
by Julio
Being used to bike rides usually starting further west of my home, I found this ad in The Voice which is a local news periodical pretty interesting. I rarely, if ever, am a part of Midnight Ridazz or Critical Mass since I like rides in small groups. But this might be different so I sent them an email yesterday, but have yet to get response. Maybe they’ve been inundated with a huge response because folks are hopping on two wheels because $4.58/g is causing some hurting.
Is it a day-ride, a night-ride, a tour of the Eastside ride? I’m down for this. I personally enjoy riding through Lincoln Heights with it’s relatively slow traffic and wide residential streets. But I do hate going down Eastern Ave. in El Sereno because it’s a narrow street where SUVs try their best to scare the sh*t out of me with their horns. Now Boyle Heights, that’s a part of town I’d like to try to ride through.
If you get a response, let us know what these “The Voice” people are up to!
I’ll drop them a line and see if I get anything back, as well…
Thanks for the heads up!
Way to go Eastside (the real one)!
Also, DEMAND that a Los Angeles Bicycle Master Plan public input workshop take place in the Eastsdie this fall when they have their public input workshops again. Last time around, you folks have been ignored!
Way to keep biking a relevant form of transportation in LA. The eastside ride sounds like a great opportunity for cyclists in the neighborhood to connect and get to know each other while exploring the city. Most excellent.
-ride on
Eastsdie.
Maybe they can do a cemetery tour.
I saw met these dudes from the newspaper the other day. I mentioned you had posted about the bike ride but I didn’t have the opportunity to ask for more info.
