Bike Instead of Work Day


Tomorrow May 15th.


Join us!


Gather from 6-9am at Hollywood/Western
and ride at 9 am to City Hall


to deliver the Cyclists' Bill of Rights!!


There will be swag and Hollywood Pro Bike Shop will be offering bicycle tune-ups, all of which will serve to prep the crowd for a ride downtown to "Bang the Drum" at City Hall where we will deliver the Cyclists' Bill of Rights.

This year, after City Hall we head to the Los Angeles Neighborhood Initiative at USC for free lunch (gotta register online) and a panel discussion on LA's bike plan featuring Erik Knutzen of the BWC (Bike Writers Collective,) Lynne Goldsmith of the Metro and...us, the cycling community!


It all starts at Hollywood & Western in the early hours, goes to City Hall and then to USC.


Join us for a day of "Biking Instead of Working!"

Nov 20 2007 2:43 PM

you are welcome.... by the way.... how does the Grand Performances... choose who performs there? I'm curious to see if the troupe I'm in... (Lucent Dossier Vaudeville Cirque) may have an oppurtunity to perform there in the future... (is there an application process... or do you specifically find your performances through a different process?)
