Bike Partiers: the ides of March are fast approaching, and everyone knows what that means: a madness of excitement about competitive sporting events. Whether you are partial to basketball, boxing, or badminton, we encourage you to come decked in sports attire.

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. Events are held on the 2nd Friday of each momth, starting at 7pm at the Bike Church.

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.

The atmosphere of the SC Bike Party is fun, friendly, welcoming, and safe. Our goal is to celebrate cycling and build community, not to cause conflict with car drivers. See you in the streets!
