What is Bike Party?

Bike Party is a Friday night group bike ride open to any and all bike riders and Nubija subscribers. It happens the 2nd Friday of every month. Every Bike Party has a different starting point and a different route and is typically around 12-15 miles. Also every ride has a costumed theme!

Bike Party is about engaging with your biking and local community. Bike Party allows us to explore and engage with neighborhoods and even cities that we might not explore or engage with otherwise.

Bike Party is first and foremost a PARTY! There is music, and costumes and yes, there's drinking! (don't get sloppy wasted though).

So dress up and get on your bikes and ride!!!

Here is a video I made of what a bike party looks like: East Bay Bike Party

OCTOBER BIKE PARTY
HALLOWEEN RIDE - Recap


Thanks for the fantastic ride everyone! 

It's always so exciting to see new faces at Bike Party. Our numbers are growing! We had 10 riders strong including some riders who had never (and who thought they could never could have) ridden 13 miles. A great personal achievement and a great night of biking fun for everyone.

Costumes were amazing. Here are a few pics from this ghoulishly spirited night.
