In light of infamous westside congestion, and pursuit of advocating cycling as a viable option for transport, Urban Planning student Omari Fuller recently organized an event known as "Lovebirds to LAX." The route, highlighted by the ride down Sepulveda from Westwood to Los Angeles International Airport, seeks to advocate a number of interesting elements normally unseen by drivers. View more information about this ride and the far-reaching efforts by fellow Bruin Urban Planners here [3].
What I want people to come out of this with is the recognition and the awareness that they can bike on every street, and at every opportunity we should be pushing for bike lanes on every street." - Omari Fuller
