It’s SECOND  annual Jingle Bell Ride.

On Friday, 12-21-2011, we’ll ride up the L.A. River trail from the mighty Tortuga’s Long Beach Cyclery in Bixby Knolls (Long Beach Blvd & Bixby) to 3rd and Traction in the Arts District in Downtown Los Angeles for lunch at the Wurstküche. Depart 9:30 am [sharp].

The LA River is beautiful in its solitude; it allows a respite from the heavy chaos of motorized street life but at the same time, simultaneously, it’s a romantic reminder of the singular and brutal beauty of the environs through which it meanders.  The LA River Trail is an under-utilized resource.

The first annual was a successful event. We had about 35 riders.  Come out and make this year’s even more remarkable.

The Wurstküche boasts a sexy list of tasty sausage dogs and french fries with a great selection of beers to keep the spirit lively.

Put it on your calendar for Christmas Season 2012.
