Los Angeles -- Cyclists Inciting Change thru Live Exchange invites families of all ages and abilities to enjoy Endless Summer, a family bike event and picnic that celebrates the benefits of bicycling. Endless Summer is the inaugural event of C.I.C.L.E.’s new program, Families and Bikes (FAB). The free community event takes place from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 26 at Brookside Park, 480 N. Arroyo Blvd., in Pasadena. Activities will include a leisurely-paced family ride that will tour the Rose Bowl loop, short trail rides for younger children (ages 4-9), a scavenger hunt, games such as Frisbee and soccer, and a raffle. Participants will also get to enjoy light snacks donated by Whole Foods.
“Families and Bikes was formed by C.I.C.L.E. in partnership with a group of enthusiastic parents to encourage, educate, and enable local families to bicycle together,” says Liz Elliott, C.I.C.L.E.’s executive director. “Beyond a variety of health benefits, such as improved cardiovascular fitness, cycling is an easy, low-cost, and environmentally-friendly way for children and their families to have fun, while connecting with the outdoors and with each other.”
Cyclists Inciting Change thru Live Exchange (C.I.C.L.E.) is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit organization that works with individuals and communities to promote the bicycle as a viable, healthy, and sustainable transportation choice. C.I.C.L.E. projects include Bike Week Pasadena, lifestyle focused and skill-building safety workshops, and Urban Expeditions, a monthly community-focused bicycle ride aimed at getting more people out of their cars and onto bikes. www.cicle.org
The Families and Bikes (FAB) program is made possible with support from REI.
