Alki Summer Streets this Sunday - Join the Party!

Come celebrate summer bicycling at Alki Summer Streets this Sunday, May 19.

From 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. the city of Seattle is closing down its largest public space - its streets - so people can walk, bike, roll, run, skip and shop - without having to watch out for cars.

I am particularly excited about all the fun bicycle-themed activities this year. Alki Beach Creeps will host the largest costumed bike parade in West Seattle’s 111 year history.  After the parade, West Seattle Bike Connections will run bicycle safety course for kids. Cascade Bicycle Ambassadors will be on hand to help kid's bikes decorate and answer any and all bicycle related questions.

Here are the details:

- 11 a.m.-1 p.m.: Bike decorating. Fun for all ages at 63rd Ave SW and Alki Ave SW on the bike path side of the street.

- 12:45 p.m.:Meet to parade down Alki to Don Armeni park. We will loop back and finish at 59th Ave SW and Alki Ave SW.

- After the parade we invite all families to stick around to try the bicycle safety course hosted by West Seattle Bike Connections.

If parading isn't your thing, join us anyway to checkout live music, skateboarding demos, a tye-dying station and more!
