Dress in your finest to roll through history for C.I.C.L.E.’s North Hollywood Tweed, Moxie and Mustache Ride on
Saturday, January 19th!
The ride will begin at Valley Village Park and will make two stops. The first stop will include an introduction and
tour at SPARC’s The Great Wall of Los Angeles, one of Los Angeles’ true cultural landmarks. Curated by Judith
Baca, the Great Wall is a half-mile long mural of the region’s vibrant history of struggle and resistance. Next, the
ride will continue on to El Portal Theater, a historic landmark in the heart of North Hollywood. Originally built as a
vaudeville house in 1926, this site will be a perfect photo opportunity for riders dressed in their best tweed! You
won’t want to miss this exciting historic ride! C.I.C.L.E. will be raffling a New Belgium Brewing Beach Cruiser and
will give out awards for best-dressed, best mustache and best hat! Please bring cash for the raffle. As with all
