I used to ride my bike from Home (Arcadia, behind the Arboretum) to Work (Burbank, behind Burbank Studios), to my Girlfriend's house (Glendora)

Aloha, neighbor! You still an Arcadian? I work in Hollywood, but home is in Pasadena. Knowing this area as I do (lived in L.A. all my life) - that is one hell of a day's ride! I get saddle-sore just thinking about it!

Off topic a little....I hate riding in traffic since my "bicycle vs. Buick" run-in of December, 2003. Landed me in Huntington Memorial with three broken ribs. People out here do NOT look out for bikes! A run down the S.G. River bikeway from Azusa to Long Beach and back must be worth a half-dozen Mai Tais, I would think! :wink:

I'm living in University City, San Diego, Ca., but my parents still live behind the Arboretum. I might ride 4 miles a day, 3 days a week, down here, but the hills are killer.
