Photos: Bicycles take over the Drive Thru Light Show at History Park

For one night only — Sunday, Nov. 24 — the drive-thru event was solely a bike-thru event. The Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition posed the question to Christmas in the Park Managing Director Debbie Degutis, who agreed to the two-wheeled extravaganza.

Although bikes are no longer allowed this season, cars are allowed at the Drive Thru Light Show through Jan. 1. Tickets are $30 and can be purchased at www.fareharbor.com/christmasinthepark/items. It is the primary revenue source that keeps the downtown Christmas in the Park display free for visitors.
