what is the best ie... cheapiest way to get from lax to the bike thanks for the help

Re: lax to the bike
 

most likely, renting a car is cheapest. a cab would be fairly expensive. taking the bus would be slow and impractical.

Re: lax to the bike
 

A combination of a bus and metrolink would be the cheapest, but utterly impractical in LA.

Re: lax to the bike
 

ya...rent a car for 50 bucks. Cab ride will probably run you 40-50 each way.

there is a free shuttle to the metro, take that as close as you can to the bike(i dont know where it is) and then cab it. i think youre pretty solid there.

I'm not crazy about that idea. It will let him off around the 105 fwy and the 710 fwy. He may not be able to get a cab there.

The Bicycle is located in a pretty crappy area, so you might be better off getting a car rental. Or better yet, go to the Hustler which should be about $20 in cab fare from LAX.

Actually, you can take the Green Line all the way to the 105 and the 605 in Norwalk. From there you can take either a cab for about $10-$15, or take the 111 bus for $1.25 from the station directly to the Bike.

Takes about 15 minutes by bus from Norwalk station to the Bike. Probably about an hour and a half in total from LAX.

And the Bike is not in a crappy area. But to get from LAX to the Bike, you'll have to go through some very crappy areas. So you're right... a rental car is probably best.

Re: lax to the bike
 

Cab or rental car. Rental car is probably cheaper. There is no other realistic option. Anyway, with a rental car you can also visit Commerce which is like a 10 minute drive from the Bike.

I lived within walking distance of the Metrolink station in Burbank, but was never able to map out a reasonable way to get anywhere near the Bike or Commerce by public transportation, so I drove, and it was hell.
