Yeah, you may want to change the date to 05/08/2010.  It took me a second to realize it's in May.

On a side note, I agree with that guys shirt.  :beer:

I hope not.  I'd rather ride the marina than that little slab.

Jeap. Frustrating that it doesnt display the address????

Houghton park is CUT. Worst spot ever. If you guys want a resident LB cat to pick out some much better spots....HAPPY to provide! But riding on 12 x 12 of slippery smooth concrete is never fun. Thats like fighting with a wild bobcat but they put grease on your feet before the battle....you KNOW your ass gonna slip and fail.

I sent jesse and bobby a REALLY DOPE spot that could hold HUNDREDS of flatlanders in newport. Big props to animal1 for re-discovering this spot.

Ok, did some digging and spoke to Erich Hough about the location. Its going to be part of the long beach bike festival in downtown long beach. Eric said -

"its going to be at the long beach bike festival in downtown LBC on may 8th. there is a lot of ground available, so I'm going out there monday april 26 to meet up with chad and choose the best surface. stay tuned at
http://www.myspace.com/bmxfoundations"

The official press release states:
"The start/finish line will be located at Broadway & Promenade
with festival activities for all ages taking place throughout the Promenade and Pine Avenue areas."
From:
http://longbeachbikefest.org/images/stories/2010/LBBFPressRelease2010.02.26.pdf

So, there's no 'exact' location as of yet, but hopefully I can meetup with eric/chad tomorrow and post more info on where we will be.

Thanks!

You don't have to compete.  Just come hang out, ride, and have some fun.
