    In this weekend edition: LA is a house divided! USC and UCLA football are playing their 90th crosstown rivalry game tonight in front of a completely sold out Rose Bowl stadium.

    Then: We all know that riding a bike in L.A. is not for the faint of heart – and it’s not really getting better – despite ambitious safety plans. This week on How To L.A., we took a look at our city's cycling infrastructure, and we'll find out what more needs to be done.
