Last Saturday LA’s Estevan Oriol did a collaboration with Salman Agah’s Pizzanista! restaurant that included a special pie, pizza box, and the chance to check out some of the photographer’s latest work. A great crowd was on hand in the Saturday sunshine, one day before 5 de Mayo to check out the lowriders, photography, and strong drinks at Tony’s Saloon next door. Check out Erwin Recino’s photos from the event below…

CicLaVia is one of the very best regular events in Los Angeles, and one of the best trends is the rise of crazy people in costumes, on weird bikes, etc. Two of the wildest bikes were the StoopidTall bike, which is ridiculously high off the ground, and the Movable Feast group bike featuring well dressed ladies and gentlemen enjoying fine dining as they pedal furiously under the table. Tall bike above, Movable Feast below:

Harry & Sons Radiator Shop ~ 9344 Valley Blvd. ~ (626) 288-0644 ~ Rosemead

Harry & Sons specialize in vintage, classic and antique radiator repair. In 1938, Harry Trepanier of Luddington, Michigan, opened Harry’s Garage in Santa Monica, CA. In Michigan, he’d flown and sold old airplanes out of Trepanier Airfield, until an aggravated asthma condition sent him and his two sons packing for sea breeze and California sun. One mechanic at Harry’s, Joe, 71 years old, has worked here since he arrived from Mexico at the age of eighteen. Mrs. Trepanier, who drives a 1913 Cadillac and staffs the front office, has been married to Harry for at least 27 years. There’s no website, “but plenty cobwebs.” The family has participated in a traveling antique roadshow and loaned their collection to movie shoots, which explains the incredible car collection in the yard. A fire engine, buses, cars, and antique bicycles were paraded around with well dressed mannequins behind the wheels and seated in the vintage paddy wagon from Sing Sing Prison. Years ago, Harry & Sons refurnished cars for Disneyland. One time, Robert (Bob) Jani, legendary event producer and L.A. native, asked Harry & Sons to build a custom bicycle for Liberace to ride on the opening day of Walt Disney World in FL. Three 5′ wheels carried a piano which Liberace played and steered from a unicycle seat. It’s on permanent display at the Pepsi Cola Saloon.
