Any good stories about it?
my siblings live in the Melrose/Fairfax area
i visit often

my tactic is to carry a digital camera within quick access
often its in video mode, or i simply snap shots

i've had some issues with the Metro. more so than plain traffic, as it often times becomes a Leap Frog of sorts between cyclist and buses.

just being able to document anything that should occur, is the first step

a camera pretty much tells the story.

strangely, people seem to "straighten up" when they see you with a camera.

often i'm in awe of LA Traffic, so there i'll sit at a huge intersection, snapping off some pics.
