howlerwood cloggin'
yo yo yo! downtown hawk here. well, for starters, everybody but hillary bailed out today. it was supposed to be zack and this dood named ryan as well but, so i met him at 3rd and fairfax at the grove at 530am and we beat off on our clog.
hillary had some specific things he wanted you guys to see so he brought his feeaunkee’s camera and snapped some shots.
the first stop was down on 3rd...
sunset clog sunrise
alpine was pretty cool. it goes northwest-ish up to sunset and it’s a bit of a hill but hillary said the burn in his legs from top gear was a good way to start the day. i felt no such burn in my wings and i started my day by flying in from downtown so whatever.
alpine hits sunset right after the strip in like bel aire or something. all i know is there are two “houses” (winger quotes)being built...
crane clog
after the studio shot hillary loaded the camera back into his fanny pack and clogged on. he got a shot of the sunrise coming up over the hill and a one of a silohuetted crane on top of a building.
clog 'til you're blue
after that he clogged up laurel place to hollywood blvd and jammed out down the hill right into touristville. which if you haven’t been to hollywood blvd, touristville turns into junkie/whore-ville after all the bars and shops close and apparently they stay out until morning. hillary didn’t snap any photos of them cuz he was scared. pussy.
anybody heard of the metro? i’ve never been on cuz they...
clog cahuenga
so after blue lining it for a ways, hillary took a right clog down cahuenga and blasted the hill pretty good. cahuenga isn’t the best hill for going fast cuz it’s pretty mellow but it was a good chill.
he got the camera out and i took a photo of him while he was riding. the reason it looks like he himself took the photo is cuz i can’t fly and work a camera at the same time so he held his arm...
sleep clogging
cahuenga intersects melrose and hillary clogged west at top speed. nice and flat. just pedal to the metal type shit. he slipped back behind fairfax high school and took one last photo before heading home.
all told it was about 13 miles and an hour out of his day. then i got to fly back home and start on this.
hope this inspires you or something. clog it up homies. i wanna be able to say “i...

the clog home
ouestjesuis:
downtown is sweet but it was time to head out. generally you know when it’s time to head home cuz you’ve ridden to the point where you don’t feel like you have enough energy left to make it home. so zack and hillary took 7th west until it dead ended into a construction site. they turned north (that’s right if you’re heading west) and cruised up to 3rd and turned left (west) for...
artist district (clogging the lofts)
ouestjesuis:
after the bridge, once we had settled on how all this was gonna go down, i flew over head as zack and hillary booked through the artist district right by the river and the railroad tracks. the area is super cool. just massive old warehouse buildings that people have converted into living spaces. 2121, molino, toy factory, biscuit company, etc. all occupy space down there. the area...
clogging coffee
ouestjesuis:
so after snapping a quick photo zack and hillary decided to get a coffee at peet’s on main st in santa monica. it took for-fucking-ever to get coffee cuz the half goth half indie rock kid working the register was too busy coiffing his hair to realize that he needed to brew more. so zack and hillary copped a seat outside and sipped and chatted and half an hour later (peet makes...
more clogging
ouestjesuis:
so zack and hillary tell me about their “big idea”. which, in reality isn’t so big, or original, or good, or cool, but okay, the idea is this - they are going to go on quasi-long, chilled out bike rides through los angeles and surrounding areas, take photos, and post them up on this blog type thing and tell the story of the ride. i bet you are wondering about the use of the word...
clog los angeles
ouestjesuis:
good day to you all! downtown hawk here. i live in downtown los angeles on the 4th st bridge. well, okay, to be accurate, i don’t live on the bridge. i live close by. but i’m not going to tell you where exactly cuz i know you fools would all be wantin’ to come over and party all the time and i’m a family bird of prey these days. maybe if i it was ‘95…beside the point. what i’m...
