There are a variety of bike events in the next week; a great build up to
BikeSummer. Come and hang out.
Tonight, Friday the 13th, two events
"The Wanderers" crit race (short laps)
7pm meets at 5th/Flower Downtown
There will be a gang theme, each location protecting the goal in their
"turf" the racers (the Wanderers) will go from spot to spot trying to evade
the territorial gangsters, the remainders of Friday night rush hour, and the
ever present Los Angeles Police Department. You don't have to race to be
part of this, you can participate as a gangster.
There is a suggested donation as the event is to raise money for a former
messenger who developed a brain tumor.
Midnight Rydazz Prom Ride (monthly themed bike rides)
9:30pm Meet at Echo Park Blvd./Sunset Blvd.
A twist on those Prom Parties that were all cool like 2 years ago. This time
instead of hipsters and coke, we're doing it with geeks and bicycles! Dress
to impress!
Sunday, March 15th, 7am
Ride the LA River with the LACBC! Over 1500 riders expected, 4 distances
available.
