CicLAvia is a series of open streets events that take place at least every two months. I usually go to every CicLAvia to put the walking to the test, as well as other things along each CicLAvia like finding goodies, exercising, and freebies. I first started CicLAvia on December 2nd, 2018 with CicLAvia Heart of LA. This page also includes CicLAmini, compact neighborhood routes that serve at least one community.

I took Metro New Blue 864 for this event.

Throughout the day, I found a series of YouTubers including the same person as the 6/30/19 event and SoCal Transit Studios. This event was part of Get Ready for Art Night and therefore one of the longest routes I've ever had, along with 626 Golden Streets Mission to Mission with 10 miles of walking distance.
