Is this round trip? Or am I getting stranded in Chinatown?

There is also that 24 hour chinese place around the corner from the Chinatown metro station stop. After the S&S rides, i always drive by there around 1-2a and see lots of people inside. I'm sure they sell Sapporo or Asahi. Just a thought.

There's the Mountain Bar or Hop Louie, dive Chinatown bars reminiscent of the 1970's.

Ill be heading back west. That is if I catch you guys going east!

Here is the route map http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1645692.
If you ride up to Wilshire and Robertson or Beverly and Fairfax about 9:20pm you could probably pick up with the ride as it comes through the area.

ok completely G-A-Y
i went to the station and last 3 streets of the route, then rode all over downtown. Couldn't find anyone :(
But using a bullhorn always makes a solo ride worth it :D

They were riding fast. It was a hustle ride.
We reached downtown about 11:30pm

washington and crenshaw is fucked.
on the lafixed winter ride in january we ran into some stupid motherfuckers in cars in that intersection. someone got cut off so they spit at the car and the guy in the car got out and was seriously contemplating rumbling with like 40 people. his girlfriend made him get back in the car and drive off.

Sorry to hear this! We got spread a couple of times, but overall, it was a good ride with great peeps. Get well soon Tiffany!

I have her bike. The back rim is a bit tweaked and may need to be replaced... but otherwise no other real damage to speak of to the bike.

This guy decided it was a good idea to run down a mob of ridaz after we literaly watched him rob a liquor store at gunpoint... don't suggest riding washington after 11 kinda hairy
