I live in the Silverlake area near downtown LA and normally ride from my home to Griffith Park and loop back once during the week. My favorite loop includes riding up to Griffith Observatory. I also ride every Saturday and try to put in at least 50 miles, sometimes more, depending on which group I'm riding with. I try to get together with other forum riders on these rides. We've gotten together for most any length rides, even up to 200 miles. :)
I usually divide my time between my fixed gear and geared bikes depending on the type of riding I do. Besides riding, I love to tinker and pose as well. I also occasionally take my mountain bike out on nearby trails.

Ok, since BF is being cranky again, I'll post here.

I'm actually in NorCal, but lived in SoCal for over 30 years, so still consider myself a SoCal'er (no matter what anybody says). Anyhow, here I am, with my triple crown jersey, my Seven, and my Prius Hybrid. All my prized possesions in one shot....

I'm the poseur/polar bear on the bottom left with the Tic-Tac Green (Celeste) Bianchi.

This was taken at an L.A. ride a year or two ago sometime in deep winter (Los Angeles winters can dip below 70 degrees!!!).

I love bike pics at night with a strong flash!!! It's like angels are all around us!

Congrats on the Triple Crown! I hope to go for that next year. This year is Century-A-Month.

I started riding with a group on Saturdays from Moreno Valley to San Jacinto but you'll usually see me in San Marcos and along PCH in San Diego. btw, how do I get to griffith park from Pasadena? My cousin is off the 110 and fair oaks so I wanted to come up and ride there one day just to check it out.

Check the board there is a recent thread about fav routes from Pasadena to Griffith. I think it was started by Hollywood.
