It can get really hot out there. You need to have plenty of water.

Ah - I see you just posted valleycyclist - I'll take a look!
There's a bike shop in Hollywood that does rentals. You can ride from there and get to the areas mentioned above. They have maps, and can direct you to a relatively bike friendly route to the Coast.
Edit: Oops late.
