CicLAvia October 7, 2012

Here’s a fun post. Los Angeles hosts these CicLAvia events about twice a year. It’s an opportunity for citizens to rediscover their city up close and on a bike, on a skateboard, skates or on foot.

Variations of this event happen in cities all over but in L.A. it involves closing streets to vehicles for a set period on a Sunday. The route usually starts and ends at a civic focal point, in the case on October 7, it was subway and light rail stations linking MacArthur Park, Downtown LA, East LA, and Exposition Park (the new Exposition Line).

I had a great time on bikes with friends Meredith and Marshal, who I lost, then with friends Chris, Liz and Tom, who I did not lose. We even had a light sushi lunch in Little Tokyo. Really, an L.A. Day at its best. Enjoy the photos.
