The Somerville Bicycle Committee will hold  the Somerville Illuminations Bicycle Tour, a wintry night-time ride amongst warmly lit homes.  The Somerville Bicycle Committee holds this event in conjunction with the Somerville Arts Council’s Illuminations Trolley Tour the same evening.  Meet at 5:50 p.m. in front of the main entrance to Somerville High School, 81 Highland Ave. (next to City Hall). They will  depart promptly at 6 p.m., riding for about an hour.

Wear warm clothes and light up your bike — the more lights, the merrier! Costumes are encouraged but not required. They suggest a $5 donation to support the Somerville Arts Council. After the ride, enjoy hot drinks, treats, and good cheer at City Hall.
