@gspeng.bsky.social@gspeng.bsky.socialWe ate takeout from Mama Lu's aka CBS and ate it at a table at the Chinatown hub. It's better when you eat it fresh and hot at the restaurant. But it was cheap, fast and filling. I liked the egg tarts
@gspeng.bsky.socialAt Echo Park, we met up with the celebrity that co-authored luskincenter.history.ucla.edu/wp-content/u...
@gspeng.bsky.socialI wonder how often he gets to ride his hand cycle around LA? Real protected bike lanes would give him more freedom than free curbside parking for everyone else.

@gspeng.bsky.socialSo many kids enjoying their city. At one point, I rode behind a half dozen kids riding ahead of their parents and humming the ET song. They shouted, "ET phone home!" I love biking through the twin dragons archway into Chinatown
@gspeng.bsky.socialVery likely!
@gspeng.bsky.socialOops, that's the Voter Information Guide, not the Sample Ballot
@gspeng.bsky.socialAdjusted the angle better and took a video as I rode the DTLA 2nd Street Tunnel. This was such a novel and exhilarating experience. The plastic sticks of the "protected bike lane" were never enough for me to feel safe. Note the Dodger Blue sequined top.
@gspeng.bsky.socialI bought a phone mount and realized that I could take pictures one-handed if I rotated the phone to upright
@gspeng.bsky.socialI also ran over to the @lamaterial.com booth, where I met @sherlyholmes.bsky.social and @matt-hamilton87.bsky.social in person. I have been enjoying the free subscription and thought it was time to upgrade to a paid subscription lamaterial.com
They gave me a cool canvas tote bag
@gspeng.bsky.socialThe LA County Registrar's office, which runs elections for the 10 million residents of LA County, was there. They gave me a round "I Voted" sticker, which fits perfectly over the bicycle wheel of my me-made jersey. I am holding up a Sample Ballot pamphlet that says "General Election" on the cover
@gspeng.bsky.socialFirst we went to the Echo Park hub
@gspeng.bsky.socialPast experience taught us that the E line becomes jammed with bicycles west of Crenshaw. So we biked from Expo/Crenshaw to the course. Followed 36th St, then through USC to Figueroa. Rode the farcical "protected bike lane" North on Figueroa until we met the course at 2nd.
