I'm going to be in LA for work all next week. Yup, free after about 5pm next Mon-Sat. Please don't force me to order pizza and watch pay-per-view in my hotel room every night. I'm going to have my steamroller with me, too.

Oh man... ive been wanting to comment on your username chimbley... but I didnt want to reference the decemberists and find out it has nothing to do with them. But holy crap.. I ****!ng love those guys. I drove with my girlfriend 6 horus to D.C. to see them, and it was one of the best shows ive ever been to. I then discovered they were playing in NYCa few days later and went to that one too.

This confirms my long standing suspicions. Although, to be fair, you could have just been a Dylan Thomas fan.

would you mind translating that into East-coast-ese for me?
I'm thinking it's something like:
LA is enjoyable and the races will be fun.

It's too bad you just missed BikeWinter, but I guess you can always join us for Critical Mass Los Angeles, Long Beach, or Pasadena. LA meets at the Red Line Wilshire/Western station. See ya!

yeah and check out Guelaguetza, a most excellent Oaxacan restaurant in/near K-town. If you are tempted to get the crickets, only get a snack sized portion or you'll be picking cricket legs out of your teeth for a week.
i had a blast riding around LA on a visit three years ago. there's some nice backstreet routes to get you around.

Terror_in_pink
01-19-06, 02:14 PM
yes i have your number, ill pm you mine now. ii'll probably drive down considering its a minimum of 35 miles from my housie. either that or drive out from the forest and park somewhere feasible and ride out (probably something closer to 20 miles). such an effing pain living in the suburbs.

The Sat evening session, I do believe it is at 6. I dont know the address and I am counting on you for the route.
Kiecker
01-19-06, 04:58 PM
Yep I'm there.
I'll also have a couple other friends with me.
I imagine that after the races we'll jump on the bikes and head to a bar or something, maybe here: http://www.najasplace.com/ Beer snobs unite! 777 beers on hand, 77 on tap....mostly microbrews too. It's right on the boardwalk of Redondo Beach at the pier.
