Get your costumes ready early to make use of them during a festive filled month. And this by no means you can’t don your zombie makeup and feast on some brains during the evening (BIKE PARTY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CONSUMED HUMANS DURING THIS RIDE.)
Let’s all go Trick or Treat together, and by trick I mean ride bikes, and Treat I mean enjoying ourselves and the wonderful bike folk and neighborhoods that we party with and ride through every month.
Even the sp000000kiest of skeletons follows our simple bike party rules, they aren’t 2sp00ky4bikeparty:
Stop at Lights
Stay to the Right
Ride Straight
Don’t Hate
Pack your Trash!!
Don’t get Smashed
Mr. Skeltal also recommends that remember the 3 L’s: LIGHTS, LOCKS, AND LAYERS! (thank mr skeltal)
It’s getting darker, ghouls come out at night! Bike Party is always in the evening, please always bring your lights.
Bike thieves are not ghosts- they are a very unfortunate reality and you should be diligent and bring a lock or keep an eye on your bike.
It’s getting colder, bundle up witches! You probably should bring layers with you anywhere you go in the Bay Area, though.
REMEMBER, this is a ONE HUNDRED PERCENT self-supported ride. Pump up your tires, keep some tools and snacks on you… oh and bring a plastic trash bag to PACK YOUR TRASH! If you brought it with you, you can take it home.
Did you know Bike Party is also 100% volunteer run? Pipe up if you’re interested in plugging in- going to test rides is of immense help. We sign up turn corner volunteers at the green flag before the ride starts.
The route will start at San Leandro BART and end right by Bayfair BART (in time to catch BART, as is always the case)
HAPPY OCTOBER AND HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Can you send me the map?

Hi Celeste,
EBBP has recently started publishing the route sheets and turn guides ahead of the ride. About a day ahead. But we haven’t quite been updating the WP with that. You’ll be able to find the map on the FB event/group or instagram @eastbaybikeparty
Don’t forget to get the word out that Niles Canyon will be closed to cars for the ‘Niles Canyon Stroll and Roll’ event on Sun. the 11th. It’s another bike party!!! 8 A.M. to 2 P.M.
