If you can't make it to the beach, the early am recreational crowd is great. Workout junkies walk, jog, rollerblade and bike around the stadium & Rose Bowl Golf Course. It's not exactly the best view in the world, but it's safe (the cars actually stay 3 to 4 feet away from the bikers & joggers) and most people are really friendly. I never go here on the weekends tho--between the flea market and all the other events, it's way too crowded!!
