I don't always stop for ice cream when on a bike ride but when I do, I stop at Scrumptious!

Had a little time after the ride so dug into a couple boxes of parts to play around with my Kustom Kruiser Roadster.

This thing is getting close to needing an overhaul. Thinking of overhauling it to look like it's been around 50-60 years.....

and this is good-looking ice cream

You can. Fly in to LAX, catch a ride to Venice Beach (or similar), rent a bike from one of the numerous vendors, and head out on the Strand (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Braude_Bike_Trail). I’m from the East coast and did that about 7 years ago, and that’s what got me back int bicycling. I know it kind of sucks when you get back home, but even if for a day, it’s worth it.



EDIT: A few locals pointed out that LAX isn't the best option. Never trust an out of towner on stuff like this I've used LAX and John Wayne - in both cases I was picked up, although I did drop off and pick up my wife at LAX on one trip (she had a vacation within a vacation / conflicting schedule).

Group ride. When do we leave?

I'm actually hoping to get out to San Diego mid-August for a family gathering. Getting to LA might be tougher than I made it sound in my post (now that I'm married with two kids). Hopefully I'll be spending some time in Long Beach with my cousin on that trip, and in that case, I'd love to escape to the Strand to ride for a few hours. I'll know more after this time next week.
