BIKE PARTY!
WEEEEEEEEE’RE BACK
Last we left off was March 2020 with our Social Distance ride, before the Bay Area went under shelter in place / various lockdowns due to the covid-19 pandemic. As vaccinations roll out, viruses cases continue to drop, and folks have gotten more used to ‘living in these times’ – masked, distancing, and washing hands – we’re bringing bike party back for April 2021.
In case it’s not clear: the theme for April 9ths ride is mask appreciation. If it werent for masks we would not be able to host this ride. Decorate your mask, incorporate your mask into a costume, hiss at anyone not wearing a mask, etc.
WHEN & WHERE
FRIDAY, APRIL 9th (East Bay Bike Party always rides on the 2nd Friday of the month)
START: Macarthur BART station
Meetup 7:30 PM, rollout 8 pm
ENDS: At Lake Merritt
We’ll post the route the day before the ride
Distance: ~14 miles, very flat
BART: trains stop running well before the ride ends, so plan accordingly.
Regarding potholes and train tracks: as always, we have done our best to minimize risk to riders. Be aware of your surroundings, inflate your tires fully and use a bike light that lets you see the road. The Adeline overpass in west oakland has two holes that can pop your tires if you arent paying attention. There may or may not be cones the night of the ride marking these holes.

A NOTE ON BIKE PARTY AND THE CORONA VIRUS:
YES we are riding. BUT please all be aware of the preventitive health measures that will keep our community safe.
DO NOT:
Shake hands- find a less handsy way to say hell to all your bike party peeps
Share bottles, beer, food, joints, cigarettes, vape pens, etc with others
Keep enough of a distance from folks during the ride to not accidentally swap bodilly fluids, keep enough distance from folks at the party stops and dance floors too.
We know this all is unfortunate but if we all do our part things will be OK. We will update and monitor the situation re: Group gatherings accordingly as things indeed are changing fast.
OTHERWISE, STANDARD BIKE PARTY RULES APPLY!
Bring your lights, locks, layers. Plenty of snacks, water, and libations (For YOURSELF ONLY- DO NOT SHARE!)
