Pedal Movement - Bicycle H.U.B

Due to the increased participation of lovely new cities in Cycle Chic Sundays - our local OC/Long Beach gals have been pretty busy getting things sorted.  The growth is good - but very time consuming!!

Luckily we were able to take some 'we' time and check out the Cycles of Sounds party over at Pedal Movement - Bicycle H.U.B . 

I was not surprised to see that a majority of the party goers arrive by bike.The bike community in Long Beach is very diverse and comprised of a healthy mix of young , old , male and female. This in turn makes for a wide variety of bicycles and fashions.

The workshop portion of the shop is a really fantastic old house. There are two 'cost free' rooms that provide limited services and community information. As you walk towards the right of the house you reach the service dept. It's all DIY - and they charge a flat rate [$5 / hr]. The garage is well equip with all the tools and parts needed to fix up your whip and the guys working there are awesome!

After we got the tour we headed back out to the party where we watched some live painting , listened to some remarkable DJ sets , and  noshed on homemade Vietnamese spring rolls.

If you are in the Long Beach area be sure to stop by and check them out. You can learn more about the Pedal Movement - Bicycle HUB at their website http://pedalmovement.ning.com . Also, friend em on facebook to keep in the loop for future events.

And be sure to check back later this week for updates on the latest and greatest of Cycle Chic Sundays!
