CICL AVIA IS FOR NEIGHBORS.
Meet your neighbors from Culver City, Mar Vista, and Venice on the streets of CicL Avia today.
CICL AVIA ISN’T A RACE. It’s an open streets event with no start point and no finish line. A bike is not necessary to participate in the fun!
— The CicLAvia Team CicLAvia — Culver City Meets Venice marks a milestone in CicLAvia’s history. This is the 20th CicLAvia that we’ve done in the LA Region since we started in 2010. Together, we’ve travelled along some of the most iconic streets and boulevards in our region, and we’ve created new stories and shared amazing experiences along the way. Today, we come together as a community to celebrate our streets, neighborhoods, and each other. We’ll explore Downtown Culver City and celebrate Culver City’s centennial year. We’ll experience the dynamic neighborhood of Mar Vista, and say hello to the beach in Venice. At day’s end, we hope that you’ve made some new memories and friends, because to us, “CicLAvia is our happy place.”
