I grew up and lived in Long Beach CA for many years. Its a pretty decent bike city overall. Carson used to be a nice city but has since become a crap hole. I'm surprised someone hasn't jacked you for your bike...unless you bike commute to its industrial/business section. I miss the bike routes along the flood control in Long Beach. I lost a lot of weight riding them when I was making making weight for Navy boot camp.
