letter1

Let’s scale back.get back to basics. We dont have to get guerilla to get stuff done and it can be as simple as writting a letter. Letter Writting workshp. Nothing gets a politian like ahand written letter  says joseph who worked in the assembly and has a councilman father so lets get to it and do the most non threatning option available, our voice. We’ll have the addresses and the names of people to send it to. Come for my lovely dinner of some sort of yummy pasta and drink and we’ll write letters and send them. Easy . Doable!

Wednesday April 15, 7:00pm - 10:00pm

The Bike Oven presents the class, “Spring Cleaning!”.

Join Chicken Leather and his group of comrades as they navigate the world of bike repair in an effort to get you and yours on the road.

The class will cover basic maintenance of a bicycle (in order to ready it for the Friday night ride of your choice) including: brake tuning, drive train cleanin’, bike washing, and shortcuts, tomfoolery, prestidigitation, and the irrepressible Chicken Leather’ witty banter and effervescent personality and body odor.

Students should bring their own bikes to work on if possible. Limited shop bikes will be available. Birth control optional.

A suggested donation of $10 is requested. Donation fee waived for
current volunteers.

Class is limited to 8 students. Secure your spot by emailing us at info@bikeoven.com.

April’s Art Show/Spoken Art Ride April 11

April 11, 2009
6:30 pmto11:30 pm

ceci011Saturday Night spoken art ride is upon us. Meet at the flag pole at York and Figueroa at 6:30pm leave at 7pm. The usual mayhem. Last months ride was like taking a trip on the Willy Wonka boat ride, no drugs needed. The best art ride in the city.
The artist featured this month is Cecilia Marmol. We are going back to painting. She paints scenery and scene and recently was about to show at MOCA but they backed out for lack of funds but we won out because now we get to show her work before she becomes world famous. The party and reception is at 10pm when we get back from the art ride and on until 12to 1ish. Pinata and kiddie bikes and black bean enchiladas.

Comments Temporarily Broken Fixed!

We’re experiencing a little weirdness with our caching plugin and our spam-prevention plugin right now that is making it impossible to comment on posts.

Sorry for the hassle! We’re working on fixing the conflict and will hopefully have it out of the way soon.

[Update 4/12/09: It looks like we've resolved it! Woohoo!]
