CicLAvia – Heart of LA is the largest car-free open streets events in America. It will celebrate what has become a Los Angeles institution on October 18 from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. with a fifth-year anniversary route with six miles for participants to explore by bike, foot, skateboard, wheelchair and other non-motorized traffic. The route will take people through Boyle Heights, the Arts District, Little Tokyo, Civic Center, Chinatown, Historic Core and as far west as Macarthur Park. The best part is its free! You do not need a bike to participate and there is no beginning or end. You can walk, bike or skate to your heart’s desire. For more information on CicLAvia this weekend go here.
