Here are some photos from today's ride. This is my routine, weekly, Thurs afternoon 25 mile loop ride up to nearby Griffith Observatory, just north of L.A. which I ride from home.
I usually hop on the L.A. River bike path which runs just a short distance along Griffith Park and Interstate 5. Upon entering the park I climb the canyon maintenance roads which are closed to vehicular traffic. It's a short climb to the top. These roads eventually lead up to the observatory and I loop back down the other side of the park.
