Bike Every (Satur)Day In May: The 10 Bridges Ride (Backwards)
05.1.10
It started last year. I’d come off a pretty lackluster April bike-wise and I vowed to “Bike Every Day In May,” which I did… but that’s not the point.
The point is that besides all the regular workday commuting I did throughout that month-long endeavor, the weekends were for fun, involving a series of group rides that I organized, accompanied usually by a few intrepid souls. So. with April’s impending demise I’ve decided to go sorta 2nd Annual up in here with “Bike Every (Satur)Day In May” and you’re welcome to come along for the rides, which you’ll find listed chronologically after the jump…
All rides will start and end at the same place: SilverSun Plaza in Silver Lake at the corner of Sunset Boulevard and Parkman Avenue.
Ten Bridges Re-Ride10 Bridges Ride (Backwards) – We’ll cross all 10 L.A. River bridges between Vernon and Chinatown, except unlike past editions of this classic zigzagger, this time we’ll be reversing course starting at Chinatown and heading south. Breakfast afterward at the World Famous Blue Star Restaurant in the Scrap Metal District where we will toast bridge builder Merrill Butler’s name several times. About 17 miles. Leaves at 10 a.m., May 1.
