    Areas I would suggest:
    * Griffth park ( and other areas that offer dirt trails, like above Pasadena near the JPL)
    * Los Feliz
    * Silverlake ( These two for their terrain, especially their uphill/downhill sections, winding roads, and close proximity to entry points to Griffith park as well the LA River)
    * East Hollywood
    * Echo Park ( Yes, I know you've been there previously but only breifly)
    * Atwater village ( going over the Hyperion bridge)
    * LA River ( Part of the LA river right next to Griffith Park that goes up beside Glendale and all the way towards Burbank, an interesting major bikeway with many outlets)
    Good luck, your content is awesome!

    I've been watch for years an this one was so good an here are the reasons.
    1. I was just there an did that same route..we stayed on Wilshire an was all over the the 20's in South Central. Ate at king Taco. 🤴.
    2. The energy south Central brings. It's a third world country in certain spots. The art the gangs that keep u always ready. The culture down there..amazing..an freaking scary.
    3. Graffiti..I've been here not only for the alley rides but I've seen my stuff in the flower district an my homies stuff in SSC an well in KTown. I love the Graffiti in LA. plus every time I come to LA I'm up on the new Bombs N pieces . 😊
    4. I the guy who keeps telling you to eat more street tacos 🌮 but I understand now that they are way to pricey!
    Keep up the good work an yes do longer videos cuzz I hit like all the time an subscribe 😉 👌 😎 😜 👍 💯
