T2O - TOUR OF L.A.

Rolled out with Ziadie and Irving yesterday for one of the gnarliest rides I've ever done in LA. We started it off with a run through Pacific Palisades all the way out to PCH. Headed south from there past LAX to Manhattan Beach. We turned back north and cut through Baldwin Hills up La Brea and kept going all the way up. Up to Griffith Observatory and back down east into Silverlake then cut back across town to get to Westwood. Overall we clocked 2172 feet of vertical climb over 70 miles. All fixed. All city.

Sunset and PCH. Looks a lot nicer in the daytime.

Irving was working on a stop motion video of the whole trip...until the tripod failed bombing out of Pali. :(


Manhattan Beach.



"You need to focus!"




Top of La Brea. Mile 40ish.

Halfway up. Griffith Observatory to the left and the DTLA skyline to the right.

At the top. 1161 feet.

DTLA to the east.

Back home. 70 miles down. Gushi on the way.

Smash.
