Northcoast,
Great! Hope to see you there. Bring friends ;)
It last around 2-3 hours.
Forgot to mention these sponsors/orginzers: Latino Urban Forum and The Rare Times.
It'll be fun. to anyone else interested, it's a fun way to see local "urban folk art".

Sounds like fun. But, it would be hard to convince my wife that I need to fly across the US for a 2-3 hour bike ride. Now, if it were a longer ride, there are precedents for my flying across the US (and the Atlantic Ocean). Have fun and post some pics.

Hey, Meat, I attended last year's Nacimiento ride when the start/finish was in Highland Park. I plan to attend this one if it doesn't rain. Look for the old geek riding a flat-bar Fuji. Great pictures, this time we need to have some pix of the weirdos from the Kitchen, Bike Out, LACBC and the other groups that show up. And we need a picture of Jimmie making his police-siren noise and cars pulling over. :)
Hoping to see you Sunday,
Harv

I'll keep an eye out for you. I'll be the one on the camouflaged duct tape covered bike with the bullhorn bars. I might be riding my chrome track bike if I can find a 39t chainring to replace the painful 48t ;) They'll be two adult tricycles in my gang so you can't miss us.
Oh, I can't take credit for those pics. They are linked from The Rare Times site: http://theraretimes.com

I love riding on the eastside and am going to try to make that. If I show, I'll be on the poop-brown Schwinn Suburban three-speed.
