Ciclavia in the Valley

I always enjoy riding my bike during CicLAvia, when normally car-centric streets in Los Angeles are closed to cars and open to everybody else to walk, skate, or bike. This time it was in the Valley, around Studio City, Universal City and North Hollywood area. It was  overcast, which made for a pleasantly cool day for exercising and flat, even light for sketching. I rested at a coffee shop with a friend while looking at The Sportsman's Lodge across the way with lush garden area with palm trees.
