CicLAvia Sunday, April 6, 2014 @ciclavia

The next CicLAvia will be held on Sunday, April 6, from 9am-4pm!

We’re thrilled to return to the Iconic Wilshire Boulevard route and can’t wait to co-host the national Open Streets Summit in Los Angeles that same weekend. We’re also pleased to announce that our October 5 CicLAvia will be a return to the Heart of LA with a new downtown route and our December 7 event will go to South LA with a new route.

If you’ve taken part in CicLAvia before, you have an idea of what to expect — a sea of smiling faces discovering a different side of Los Angeles by foot, bike, or skates. People connecting with businesses, alternative transportation and with each other along the car-free route in a car-free environment.

Events that transform the shared spaces of our city are rare and unique. If you have friends that haven’t yet experienced the magic and wonder of CicLAvia, take a moment to invite them to attend CicLAvia – Iconic Wilshire Boulevard on April 6. From the activity-filled pedestrian zone along Museum Row to the stunning architectural history of Wilshire Boulevard, there is something for everyone.

Tweet and post to Facebook or forward this email to your friends
    

P.S. More details on the 2014 CicLAvia routes and our vision for countywide expansion can be found here:

    Apple iPhone Air Pictures #iphone6

    Apple iPhone Air

    We should expect to see new format screens possibly one at 4.7″ and one larger at 5.7″.

    Concept images have emerged that show Apple's next-generation handset with a super-thin slender chassis. This concept, by Italian-based firm SET Solution, predicts the handset could be 1.5mm at the top and 3mm at the bottom, in order to retain the home button

    This new thin phone could revolutionize the thickness of phones.

    The iPhone 6 or the what some are calling the iPhone Air, is the 9th version of the iPhone.

    Expected to be announced sometime in 2014, possible at the WWDC in June 2014.

    Best Breakfast Options Pasadena #breakfast #pasadena #food

    If you are like me you are always looking for a place to eat breakfast and a good place nonetheless.

    Here’s a short list of some of the best options for breakfast in the Pasdaena area. Not in any order, will start to rank these based on feedback.

    Yahari’s – df – near Vroman’s, in the same mall as El Portal. Favorite spot for breakfast, friendly staff, consistently quality.

    Green Street –

    Central Park –

    Novel Cafe Pasadena – df –

    Russell’s – Old Pasadena
    Visited 10am on Sunday, Jan 12, 2014, the food is very good, the decor is also well appointed.
    Wait here can be upwards of 1 hours on Sundays. If you do come on Sunday be sure to visit the Farmer’s Market every Sunday, you could end up having enough samples to kill your appetite. Fairly small location, but open kitchen. Hashbrowns are excellent.
    Water Rank: 7
    Coffee Rank: 8

    Eurpopane – two locations

    Bar Celona/Sorriso –  brunch – df

    La Grande Orange – df on patio

    Cafe Verde

    Urth Cafe –

    Mi Piace -df

    Du-Par’s – new just opened about a week ago, in the space previously occupied by Hamburger Hamlet.

    Andy’s Coffee Shop – locals hangout.

    Marston’s – small house on Walnut near Raymond. Packed on on weekends.

    Guss BBQ – South Pas – patio df
    Mike & Anne’s – SPAS patio df

    One thing that review sites should do is grade or allow users to rank, water and coffee.  Especially breakfast places. nothing worse than having chlorinated water in the morning.
