Go to this. You will not disappointed.
In five years, when LA is the bike capital of the country and everyone is moving from Portland and SF to live here and ride bikes, you can tell all of you friends, 'Yeah I've been riding since 2005. I was at all that BikeSummer stuff and at all the Bicycle Kitchen parties. I was down before it was cool.'
yeah, it's going to be great when our city becomes as lame as portland, and you all can say "I was there to help mess it up".
The fact that you and other vultures that can't make a proper city have to flee to find something worthwhile elsewhere speaks volumes. You all are boring.
