At the 8th CicLAvia on Sunday, Metro distributed bicycle patch kits, blinkers, and maps while asking passing participants, “Why do you ride (a bike), walk, or roll?”

Some of the answers we received were: “because it’s cheaper,” “’cause it’s cooler than driving a car,” “burn fat, not oil,” “’cause it’s easier than driving through traffic” and “because it connects me to my neighborhood and gets me home quickly.”
