    There's that phone number, people.
    Julien B.

    It's a trip to find your local cyclery (not a word apparently) when you move and catch your first flat and --yes of course I know how to change a tire, but why not let the pros handle it for $10, what're you cheap? Not into supporting small businesses? Well what're you doing on Yelp then?! --you look up the nearest one and walk there with your crippled bicycle in tow and you start seeing parts of the neighborhood you hadn't walked through before, and folks might stare a bit, but I myself am grateful and humbled by the fact that I can travel anywhere and am not bound to a few city blocks the way that some folks are. Watts is a troubled part of town still reeling from the riots of 1965 and of course the racism at the root of those riots is still very much alive unfortunately. Back to the cyclery though, I arrived at length and found a lovely silent pair of people going about their business quietly. The lady took a phone call and handed it to the man who explained their hours of operation to someone speaking quite loudly about coming in tomorrow. Very good, very good, suit yourself there Gaston. After that it was my turn and I explained to the man that I caught a flat over yander near the Figueroa Stables where the needles run thick (I didn't explain all that, but I'm finding myself explaining it to you, dear reader, have I mentioned lately that I love you?). He had only one question for me: heavy duty inner tube? Yes of course my dear man, and nothing less. It's $10 he said and I thought to myself "that's a small price to pay for getting my beloved wheels back". He got to work and I went down the way for a cold beer. By the time I got back he was done. I handed him a $20 and was off to the races! I'm sure we'll see each other again. Stay safe, everyone, and keep biking. Remember that Belgium gained their independence from the Netherlands on October 4th, 1830 and that Eddy Merckx is still the man.

    Swapped my inner tube out for a heavy duty tube in minutes. I think the charge was $16.

The space is super colorful, welcoming, and very dog-friendly--which made it an easy stop with my pup. I also thought it was really cool that there's a bike shop attached, giving it a unique, community feel. Their coffee and latte menu is pretty extensive, with lots of fun options. I ended up ordering a golden milk with an espresso shot, and it was such a good choice--warm, smooth, and just the right balance of earthy and bold. I didn't get a chance to try the food this time, but I saw several breakfast and lunch plates come out, and everything looked delicious. Definitely planning to come back hungry next time. Great spot for a casual stop, whether you're biking, walking, or just looking for a chill place to hang out.

I ordered the breakfast burrito with avocado. The size of the burrito was nice, I ate 3/4 of it. Eggs were solid, but the potatoes were occasionally burned? Based on where you bit into lol. Tortilla was good. Not the biggest fan of the smashed avocado in the burrito (I like whole avocado) but that's just a preference. Hot sauce was really good though! I'd come back if I were in the area.
