Since 2013, Salinas residents have enjoyed the Ciclovia bike path, bringing their bikes out to pedal with their friends and family on a 1.6-mile car-free environment.
This year, Ciclovia returns on Sunday, Oct. 6 with dozens of booths, music performances and resources from local clinics and hospitals, the City of Salinas, school districts and more.
Free resources will be available including bike repair and decorations, helmet demos and flu vaccines.
The event will also have giveaways and raffles. Natividad staff and Natividad Foundation will give away 126 helmets and raffle children’s bikes.
Ciclovia is from 10am to 2pm on Alisal Street from Main Street to Sanborn Road.
There is also a fun run; anyone with or without a wheeled vehicle—bike, roller skates, etc.—is welcome to participate. Registration for the run begins at 8:30am at the Alisal Street and Sanborn Road intersection.
