LA's first street closure for a non-competitive bike/ped/fun event is coming Oct. 10th. Ciclovia's are happening regularly in cities all over the world, demonstrating the important role that our roads can play in creating a vibrant, healthy city. Public streets are our biggest repository of public space and it's time we begin to use them as a resource for more than just moving cars. (Google ciclovia if the term is new to you).
You can see the 7 mile route it will take if you scroll to the bottom of the CicLAvia blog:

Plans are also being made for a Ciclovia in Santa Monica this fall, possibly on the same day.
