An amazing and unique way to explore Los Angeles by bike!

When you visit a new city, you want to make the most out of it. Experience every aspect of the new surroundings. But how can you do that in a place you have never been before? Usually without knowing anybody in the neighborhood? Sometimes the standard methods aren’t enough, and we advise maybe taking a hike, or using a bike to explore Los Angeles! Our first advice is to rent a bike. It is incredible how much your perspective of your environment changes while paddling through the streets, enjoying a nice workout. Traffic becomes secondary, nature and little details about houses are the new focus. Stop whenever you want, decide your own pace, and don’t be rushed or restricted by traffic. Our LA in a Day bike adventure combines those two aspects and many more! Start your ride in West Hollywood, where rock & roll meets fashion,…
