Pajama Ride – September 11, 2026

Sometimes, it can be hard to motivate to go out on a Friday night. After a long week, it feels nice to get out of those uncomfortable work clothes, don your softest loungewear, and relax while sipping on a nightcap, or an herbal tea.

Well this Bike Party, we invite, nay, encourage you, to get out of the house without changing out of your jammies, be they an epic onesie, a fancy smoking jacket, or anything inbetween.

*MEETUP LOCATION CHANGE* This weekend, Iron Man will be taking over Depot Park, so we probably won’t have access to meet up there. We’ll do our best to fit nearby over by the Marine Sanctuary Exploration Center, in their parking lot and adjacent sections of the trail.

Here’s our route for this month:

Kooks vs Locs – August 14, 2026

Grew up here? Transplant from a flyover state?? Doesn’t matter. grab your corporate branded Puffer vest, socks and sandals. Or maybe that vintage skate brand tee that shows you were here before it was cool

Whether you’re joining us from where 880 becomes hw17 or you’re a leathery surfer living in his parent’s ADU.. this town is as full of kooks as locs.. and locals that are actually kooks. Dress like a tourist, a valley kid or just someone that lives locally. 

Just don’t show up driving a dumpster

See you Friday August 14th, 7pm at depot park for another rendition of the Santa Cruz Bike Party!!
