A friend from Canada who knows I bike just sent me this:

An article in "Globe & Mail" (Canada's national newspaper), about biking in Los Angeles. Several familiar faces are quoted.

Nice article Mr. Rollers. Seemed pretty accurate and representative of the city.
I never knew Beverly Hills Bike lends hybrids. I wonder if there's a catch to this. It doesn't sound right.

I once asked if I could rent one of their road bikes and the owner was ok with it. This was before I had a road bike. That's all I can say because I didn't rent a bike.

Pretty decent article.
I like the part where they called stillline a paparazzo, that made me lol.
Good to see that they finally got to Kat for one of the interviews.

And our very own Kat Espino is interviewed!
I was stoked when I saw the article, (Kat showed me the link earlier this week) because when she said she was interviewed by a Canadian journalist, I had no idea it was for the freaking Globe and Mail! That's my favorite paper :)
And my friends Emily and Kellar saw the article and mentioned it to me today! They said it was on the cover of the Travel section! (They saved it for me)

Looks like this shop might be a good place to send people looking to rent a decent road bike for a few days.
