took the train up to union station/dtown la and started the first of three smallish rides. one was about 5 miles from union station to silverlake. hitched a ride with fellow forumite Tycho Brahe and did the little tujunga canyon/camp 9 climb for
ride #2. what a joy. a little warm but noticeably devoid of traffic for a majority of those 30 miles up and back. unexpectedly good visibility considering it got up to 90 degrees. dedicated water fountain at camp nine was the real star in my book tho.

got dropped off in silverlake and racked up some bonus flat junk miles in the heat. only real revelation was heading east on alondra for a few miles and finding it in really good shape for an east/west corridor through orange county to/from either the la river path or the sgrt. didn’t have a bike lane but it may as well have given it was pretty wide.
