Hey Southern California!
Several events have conspired to keep us on the West Coast since late August – and now we are in Southern California, figuring out our plans for the winter (exciting announcements forthcoming). While we’re here, we’re filling up our calendar with a few presentations and fun events – and, since we’d love to meet up with our So Cal readers, we hope you all can make it to one (or many) of these upcoming events…
Saturday, October 1: Tour de Fat, San Diego
We’re headed down to San Diego for New Belgium’s quintessential festival of bike fun and beer. We’ll even be loading the camping gear on the bikes, and squeezing a short tour into the trip south! If you’ll be at Tour de Fat, look for us. We’ll be in the parade (possibly in costume) and hanging out through the rest of the day. (We’d also love to spend an extra day or two in San Diego, so contact us if you’d like to meet up or host us for a night.)
Thursday, October 6 @ 7-9pm: Presentation in Long Beach
We’ve planned two presentations about bike touring and our travels. The first will be at {open} in Long Beach. {open} is one of our favorite spots in Southern California and we’re thrilled that they’ll be hosting us to talk about traveling on bikes! Join us for stories from the road, the lessons we’ve learned, and your very own chance to see a Brompton!

2224 E 4th Street, Long Beach, CA 90814
Saturday, October 8: Tour de Fat, Los Angeles
Yes, New Belgium is just crazy enough to host two Tour de Fat festivals, back-to-back, in Southern California. And we’ll be at both! If you can’t make the one in San Diego, come find us in LA.
Sunday, October 9: CicLAvia, Los Angeles
What would it be like if roads were filled with bikes and pedestrians instead of cars? More and more cities are experimenting with blocking off traffic for a limited time and celebrating the community that comes together when cars are removed from streets. We’re excited to see how LA does it, and hope to meet some folks there!
Tuesday, October 11 @ 7-9pm: Presentation in El Segundo
Our second presentation is hosted by El Segundo-based bike shop and Brompton dealer, Electric Bikes LA. We’ll be sharing stories and lessons from the road, talking about what it’s like to travel on Bromptons, and giving tips for great bike tours in Southern California. This is a wonderfully large space, and we’re hoping to pack the place! (Accessible from Metro’s Green Line.)
The Joslyn Center Social Hall
339 Sheldon Street, El Segundo, CA 90245

Hey, so excited you’re coming down to SD!
If you’d like to sleep over in a tiny 400 sq ft apartment, you’re more than welcome to come over.
Hey Sam, thanks for the offer! We’ll let you know. Have any suggestions for bike stuff in SD?

here is one recent article. If you’d like to give a talk at my LBS, Velocult, let me know.
I am not sure if you would want to come up here to Ventura/ojai, but I could start poking around to get a venue set up.
Hi Laura,
I work at Patagonia in Ventura, CA. Would you guys be interested in doing a stop here or an event to talk about what you are doing?
Let me know,
Alison

Excited to hear your coming El Segundo to share some stories from the road. See you on the 11th. If you need a place to spend a night or two, your welcome @ our place in neighboring Culver City…., being slobbered and loved/assaulted by Kodie (a mutt) and Phinney (a feline) not withstanding…
Visiting LA for work this week. On my way to the hotel in Hermosa beach I stopped by El Segundo to check out Electric Bike LA and town of El Segundo late in the evening. Cool town!
