Being Joe borfo. I’ll have borfo Masks we can all put on as well. Read more to get to the borfo part.Dont go home after the Tour de Fat stay and roll up a few streets to the Bike Oven and keep enjoying a slow bike ride filled with art and imagination. This month we have Borfo’s costumes he’s worn on rides before with pictures and other relics of costumes that didnt survive the ride. Plus Charles Aguilar new work is up at the Pigeon. So even if you’re tired hop on the gold line get off on heritage square and take the most chill ride out there the spoke’n art ride.We’ve become an amusement park of rides with three rides to choosee from the fast ride will probably hit up every single gallery. The middle speed is josephwith the bakviet so that is the pretty slow one.

During May 3rd’s Bike Plan Implmentation Team’s meeting, officials from LADOT laid out their plan to delay implementation of many parts of the city’s new bike plan in order to perform expensive, lengthly, and unneeded environmental impact reviews.
Joe Linton reports:
the city is proposing to spend 500 thousand dollars to spend “12-18 months*” to decide whether it will implement 100-200 thousand dollars worth of bike lane projects. The main issue is whether the city has to spend huge amounts of money studying environmental impacts before proceeding with implementing approved bike lanes.
It appears that LADOT has begun to revert back to their standard operating procedure of delaying progress and hiding from public scrutiny their decision making processes and criteria.
Many of you worked long and hard to see that the city designed and passed a real bike plan with potential to actually impact the role of bicycles as transportation in Los Angeles. But we knew the fight wasn’t over. Call and write the Mayor, your city councilman, and DOT officials to let them know that you insist that Los Angeles follow through on its promises and plans.

The Bike Oven is hosting a FREE maintenance workshop. This workshop will review the basic steps to thoroughly check a bike for safety prior to a ride, to check for necessary repair or maintenance, or to inspect a bicycle prior to purchase.
The class is open to all levels and no prior mechanical experience or tools are needed.
If you have a bike, bring it with you so you can learn to evaluate it. If you do not have a bike, shop bikes will be available to learn on.
RSVP is required. Please email workshops@bikeoven.com
Made possible by funding from the Department of Health and Human Services through the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
So it’s the last week of the month again and you know what that means kiddies- Critical Mass time. This month, instead of just sneaking away from our jobs and families, here’s an official post to letcha know: We (The Bike Oven staff and Friends) are riding to CM as a pack from the Bike Oven. That’s right. Through months of careful traffic and terrain research, we’ve figured out a slick back alley route to the CM start point at Wilshire and Western. Anyone interested in joining us to ride out as a group is more than welcome to come. We meet at the Oven at 6 pm and ride out by 6:30 at a chill pace to get to CM smooth and on time. Our super duper top secret route plan does however include one brief stop at the Southwest corner of Echo Park (aka Glendale and Bellevue) for those of you not right on time or NELA enuff to start with us, we’ll scoop you up along the way.
We’re big proponents fixing up that old bike and getting it back on the road. But sometimes there’s nothing to do but start fresh. If you’re in the market for a new ride and you’ve got an old one sitting around, here’s a way you can help out cycling in Los Angeles while getting a discount.
