That was the day that Tropical Storm Hilary arrived in Southern California, of course, which meant several event cancelations, including the multi-mile CicLAvia roll.

This means, yes, there are tees for the event, and hub buttons, too, celebrating the ride's four main stop-and-socialize points.

Eager to own this piece of CicLAvia history? There's a sale on now, but not for long: You can get your Koreatown Meets Hollywood tee for $20 (regularly $28), and those well-illustrated hub pins, too.
But don't delay: The Event Bundle sale wraps on Aug. 25.
Next up on the CicLAvia schedule? A CicLAmini, a newer offering that puts the emphasis on a shorter (but still sweet) route, will pedal into North Hollywood on Sept. 17.
