hopefully you've already gotten out and about a grip in la. depending on where exactly you lie, much of angeles national forest is nearby or the santa monica mountains
or palos verdes peninsula or la habra hills. ya got the north/south bike paths of marvin braude (along the beach), la river trail, sgrt and sart for concreted bike paths.
there are times when i would blow all that off for a sweet 45 mile ride incorporating dtown la, arts district, little tokyo, chinatown, boyle heights, elysian park, echo park, silver lake,
atwater village, griffith park, toluca lake, laurel canyon, hollywood hills, fairfax district, hollywood, little armenia, los feliz and filipinotown. come aware and come hungry cause the sights
and smells are overwhelming.
