- Monday 10/31 - This is Halloween! This is Halloween! Everybody make a scream! And of course be safe both as a participant, road user and especially parent. We haven't seen the LADOT safety press release for 2016 yet, but you can read the 2015 one at Streetsblog LITE. (Update, LADOT sent out the tips via social media and you can find links here : Twitter, Facebook)

- Friday 11/4 through Sunday 11/6 - Revolution Bike Fest is coming to Orange County. The promotional material makes it appear similar to the Bike Fest in Downtown Los Angeles earlier this year, but bigger. And over three days. Do you like bikes? How about festivals? Then this is for you. (Note: I'm assuming you answered yes to both of those questions). More details, here.
- Saturday 11/5 - The city of Glendale hosts a Walkabout to bring people together to understand and document positives and negatives of walking in Glendale.

Free, but pre-registration requested at city of Glendale website. Share via Facebook event.
- Sunday 11/6 - The L.A. County Bicycle Coalition is hosting another Sunday Funday ride. The easy-moderate 16-mile loop ride meets at 9:30 a.m. and departs at 10 a.m. from the Highland Park Metro Gold Line Station. Heavy rain cancels or postpones the ride, but if it's just drizzle then the ride will go on. Details at Facebook event.
