Programming Note: Streetsblog Talks to CicLAvia Today at 3:30 pm

This won’t be the first time we’ve talked to Stephen Villavaso on camera…

Just a reminder, later today Streetsblog Los Angeles will be interviewing CicLAvia executive director Aaron Paley and Steerting Committee member Stephen Villavaso live at 3:30 pm. We’ll be using Google Hangout again, and broadcasting live on StreetsTube, our YouTube account page.

If there’s anything you’d like me to ask them, please leave a note in the comments section or tweet with hashtag #ciclaviasb
