Do you dream of life in a bicycle-centric city? You can have it in Westwood — if by “life” one means 4 hours and by “city,” 6 blocks or so. Here’s what’s coming to LA in a month:
Bike Town Beta is a unique bike ride and social gathering. We will be transforming a small urban area into a mini bike town for a night. Simply ride your bike around the area meandering up and down every street. Make stops to patronize businesses, enjoy parks, and chat with other riders.
When: Saturday, October 25, 2008 from 6 pm – 10 pm
Where: In the area bound by Wilshire, Galey, Westwood, and Le Conte in Westwood Village, Los Angeles
I’m trying to get more details from Alec Schwartz, the organizer, about how this first — and hopefully not last — Bike Town Beta is coming together. In the meantime, put the event in your calendar!
Sounds great! I’ll bring the family and have some dinner. Spread the word!

Ditto – this sounds Awesome!! We will definitely be there with as many peps as we can muster! Dinner at Native Foods and meeting like minded people – sounds like a great evening.
Our Xtracycle will be there, hope to see more!!

Yay, Thanks for posting this. The comments make me extra excited because I’m hoping to attract many families and people outside the bicycle culture circles I’m involved with. Of course there will be a couple hundred of them too. :)

I shall work to build up my biking muscles to make it over there — or at least to lift it on the 720 bike rack –
