Attention bike and infrastructure enthusiasts: Clockshop presents an 18-mile guided bike tour through Northeast Los Angeles led by the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Infrastructure Inspections (@infrastructure.la ). This tour continues Clockshop’s ongoing series with artist Rosten Woo (@rostenwoo ) tracing the pathways of water in Los Angeles. What does water want, and what do we want from water? This multi-stop bike tour will investigate a storm drain, developing wetlands, and water treatment facilities along the Glendale Narrows section of the Los Angeles River.
Join us for the full experience, or just for a lunchtime conversation at the end of the tour, moderated by Rosten Woo. This will be an opportunity for both biking and non-biking attendees to hear from experts on multiple perspectives about the past and future of the Los Angeles River and its watershed.
