Summertime, and the living's easy. Celebrate the joy of long days, barbeques, and school vacations by cruising the coast with us in a rolling celebration of the season. No need to worry about the tourist traffic if you ditch your car and roll on two wheels! We'll take a lighthouse to lighthouse tour, accompanied by classic summertime tunes from the Beach Boys to DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince.


What
Santa Cruz Bike Party is a mobile party for riders of all ages, experience levels, and types to meet, ride, and play together in the streets. Rides are 7-10 miles long with music and dance breaks along the way. Rides move at a relatively slow pace and no one is left behind. Each ride has a theme and riders are encouraged to wear costumes or decorate their bikes to fit the theme.

Where
SC Bike Party starts and ends outside the Bike Church at 703 Pacific Ave downtown. The route is not the same every time, but each month organizers will post the route online ahead of time in case anyone misses the start and wants to catch up.

When
Once per month, all year long. We meet at 7pm every second Friday of the month. Rides usually leave about 7:15 and last about 2 hours.
