Taking advantage of a beautifully sunny afternoon in SoCal, Ryan Gosling was spotted casually chatting away with some friends outside of The Silverlake Conservatory of Music in Los Angeles today (August 5).

After spotting the paparazzi, the studly 28-year-old actor — who is currently filming Blue Valentine with Michelle Williams – could be seen exchanging some final pleasantries with his pals before riding off on his motorcycle.

Whether it’s the roles he plays on the big screen or his charitable endeavours, Ryan can often be seen showing off his big heart. On this day, we’re morethan happy to gawk at his big muscles.
