Join Los Angeles bicyclists and foodies on a 2 1/2 hour, two-wheel tour of Los Angeles' exotic ice creams and newly hip neighborhoods!
When: Sunday, September 12, 2004, beginning at 10:00am
Where: Mama's Hot Tamales Cafe, 2124 West 7th Street (one block from the MacArthur Park Metro Station)
Cost: $15.00 per person (includes five samples, route map, and bike support)
Starting at Mama's Hot Tamales Cafe, "Bicycle Sundae" explores our city, and samples LA's finest and unique ice creams, ranging from Persian to Japanese and from Oaxacan to Italian.
Participating shops include Mama's at MacArthur Park, Mashti Malone's new shop in Glendale, SWORK Coffee Bar in Eagle Rock, Mikawaya Bakery in Little Tokyo, and more. We'll work off each and every calorie on this nearly 20-mile ride that, in addition to the sites we'll see between MacArthur Park and Glendale, includes portions of beautiful Elysian park along the tranquil LA River Bicycle Path.
Participants can register on the day of the event, from 9:00-10:00am, onsite at Mama's. The tour leaves at 10 am. Secure parking is available behind Mama's. Ride level is easy to moderate, with rest and ice creams breaks.
Bring your taste buds along with lots of water and a helmet!
The September 12 Bicycle Sundae is one of a series of bicycle rides by the Los Angeles County Bicycle Coalition that promotes the pleasures of bicycle riding in Los Angeles. The Bicycle Kitchen, a cooperative, promotes bike culture, self help bike repair, and bike power.
