@ Bryan, I've been thinking of the O.R.R since I saw the article Doug mentioned in the Los Angeles Times.
I've ridden the LA river a few times and I always enjoy it. Good sights. I understand the idea of getting into a car to go ride a bike seems unseemly. That said the public transit system here in SoCal is woefully lacking. I want to ride for a day in Long Beach I need to ride 15 miles to the Gold Line in So Pasadena then catch two other trains total time 120 + minutes one way. I would love a Metro station out my way say a station up to 5 miles distance. I think the ride to Cullver City is doable then ride the Ballona Creek bike trail to Marina Del Ray. Yeah and what you say about riding the streets of Los Angeles definitely builds some kind of character, hyper vigilant character.
