Are you thinking about buying a bicycle or getting back on the dusty one in your garage after watching the Tour De France?  

If you are, then you might want to check out the great online maps that are available for bike paths in Los Angeles County.  Another great place to look is Los Angeles Department of Transportation's (LADOT) Bicycle Maps page which has a list of bicycle path maps throughout Southern California.

The great thing is that you can go for short scenic rides, such as the Chandler Bike Path or get your heart racing with a longer jaunt.  The dedicated bike path along the Los Angeles River is great if you want to take the kids and not have to worry about traffic.  The only downside is you are right next to the 5 Fwy as well.   

This is a great way to enjoy your neighborhood and get some exercise, but please, learn proper road etiquette and wear a helmet, don't take a risk, like the girl in my cartoon!  

Test your knowledge of bicycle safety!

Summer is almost over, go out and enjoy our great weather!!!
