The lovely and talented alicestrong brought this to my attention.

Bikeweek Pasadena (http://www.cicle.org/cicle_content/pivot/entry.php?id=1373)

From the site:

More than 15 free events are planned from Monday, May 14 to Sunday, May 20 including:

• Mayor’s Bike to Work Brigade led by Bill Bogaard, bicycling aficionado and Mayor of Pasadena.

• Themed bike tours like the Sunset Sonata Ride, where you can cycle to an enchanting overlook on the Arroyo Seco, complete with a live violin and cello duet as well as hors d’oeuvres.

• Free bicycle-related films and documentaries screened outdoors nightly in the One Colorado Courtyard.

• An Urban Bicycle Commuter Expo featuring folding and electric bicycles, accessories, cargo bikes and trailers that handle everything from shopping trips to hauling lumber.

• Morning Bicycle Pit Stops with breakfast treats and give-aways every morning at various locations throughout Pasadena.

• Live Music!

Bike Week Pasadena is a citywide effort to highlight the benefits of bicycling. Riding a bicycle is an easy way to exercise, reduce traffic congestion, minimize air pollution, cut fuel costs -- and a wonderful way to meet your neighbors. This weeklong salute is presented by city of Pasadena Department of Transportation, One Colorado, Cyclists Inciting Change through Live Exchange (C.I.C.L.E.), Patagonia and Metro.
