LIC Bike Parade May 10, 2008
Long Island City, New York 11106
Socrates Sculpture Park presents its annual 'LIC Bike Parade' in partnership with Bike New York, Freestyle Arts Association, Friends of Queensbridge Park, Materials for the Arts, The Noguchi Museum, Partnerships for Parks, Recycle-A-Bicycle, and Transportation Alternatives (Queens Committee). This FREE family and community event will invite children of all ages to explore the creative and functional potential of adaptive reuse, by using repurposed materials to repair and decorate their bikes! The day will kick-off with several hands-on workshops and activities at the Park including bike decorating, bike repair consultations, riding safety tips and helmet fitting. Immediately following the workshops, participants will parade their bikes around the Park in a colorful procession with Hungry March Band and performers from Circus Amok, City Reliquary and the Civic Riders Bicycle Club.

I was there. We were late but it was cool. Very few participants but they have good intentions. I hope that next year, it will be a lot better and more people join and know about this event. It will help us tremendously in terms of health and the environment
