Spooktacular Community Ride

Join us for a festive, all-level bike ride through the Hollywood neighborhood—where community, lights, costumes, and Halloween fun come together! Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or just starting out, this welcoming and inclusive ride is all about enjoying the streets, meeting new friends, and soaking in the spooktacular sights. Costumes are encouraged (just be sure they’re safe to ride in and won’t get caught in your wheels!).

We’ll meet at Highland & Hollywood Station before cruising through the neighborhood, stopping first at the Roosevelt and then De Longpre Park. From there, we’ll continue rolling through Hollywood’s lively streets, making our way to the iconic Hollywood Forever Cemetery to pay tribute to a few “past friends” along the way, all while taking in the glow of the lights and the spirit of the season.

If you would like to use a Metro Bike Share bike at no cost, please reserve a "I need to borrow a Metro Bike" ticket when you register. You must be 16+ to ride a Metro Bike.
