Join us at Ciclovía Miami on Calle Ocho Sunday, December 14th from 9am to 1pm! SW 8th Street will become an open 1.2 mile long park for four hours in a FREE, family-friendly environment open to everyone. Come ride your bike, walk, run, dance, and explore.

Ciclovías turn major city streets into safe and open, car-free environments for families to run, bike, play and be well together. Originating in Bogota, Colombia over 30 years ago, Ciclovías are now held in hundreds of cities worldwide.
