More attendees, more families, more roadway treatments, and more activities greeted those taking over Southern Ave. SE yesterday for Albuquerque’s 2018 CiQlovia.

Event organizers, including International District Healthy Communities CoalitionVision Zero Albuquerque, Healthy Here NM, and BikeABQ are heartily thanked and commended for the hard work and planning that went into a finely tuned event. Thanks also to walking/cycling community policing help from APD and to everyone else who made it such a pleasantly “chill but not chilly” Sunday mid-October afternoon.
