Bike Attack Playa Vista- Pier Hopping, Beach Cruisin’

Posted by Kitty on Aug 9th 2016

One of the wonderful things about Southern California is cruising along the coast from beach to beach on your bike.

Starting at Bike Attack Playa Vista at Runway Playa Vista, glide along Ballona Creek Bike Path to get to the coast, cruise through Marina Del Rey Harbor and explore one of SoCal’s iconic bike paths “The Strand” (Marvin Braude Bike Path) up through to Venice Pier and on towards Santa Monica Pier.
