Holy Rollers Ride - Hosted by Bike Party Santa Cruz

🚲 The Church of Two Wheels Rides Again 🚲

A divine celebration of pedal-powered salvation

Come one, come all—saints, sinners, and single-speeders. Whether you’re a devout derailleur disciple or a fixie fanatic, this is your holy summons to join the congregation of cadence.

🛠️ Baptized in chain grease
🔔 Saved by the bell
🔄 Seeking eternal freewheel via the holy free hub body

We gather not in pews, but on pedals. Our gospel is written in tire tracks and spoken in the language of squeaky brakes and joyful whoops. Put your faith in us as we ride the pre‑ordained pathway to freedom—no judgment, just jubilation.

✝️ The Holy Roller Ride ✝️

7 PM • Depot Park
Let there be lights, laughter, and a liturgy of leg-powered liberation.

🕯️ Lights to guide our way
👫 Friends to ride beside
📏 Tall bikes to reach the heavens
🦶 Tiny bikes to humble the proud
📦 Cargo bikes to carry our burdens
💑 Tandems for divine partnerships
🛠️ Rusty relics resurrected from the grave

All are welcome to rejoice in our revolution. No need to convert—just coast. Come dressed in your finest vestments (costumes encouraged), and prepare to be blessed by the spirit of the spoke.

Amen
