Be Seen Be Safe

Come down for flashy fashions and shiny stuff—everything you need to be visible during the winter months—and enjoy some "brilliant" entertainment, too! TriMet's annual Be Seen Be Safe rally will happen in Pioneer Courthouse Square on Friday, Nov. 4 from 4 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

This event helps remind pedestrians and cyclists how they can improve their visibility when it's dark out. Highlights and prizes include:
• "Best Lit Outfit" and "Best Lit Bike" contests (prizes include bike lights, vests, jackets and neon umbrellas
• Reflective fashion makeovers and fashion shows (if you are chosen for a free makeover, you get to keep the items used)
• Performance by Sparkle Movement, a LED hula hoop troop
• Free bike check
• Evening bike ride around the city
• Free refreshments and giveaways
• Safety quiz (everyone who participates gets a free item to help increase visibility).
