Everything looks better from the seat of a bike. You can feel the wind on your face, the rhythm of the ground in your legs, you can feel your heart pumping, and the energy of your surroundings encompassing your body. On a bicycle, you can see the city, talk to strangers, escape the insulated bubbles of cars and feel free from the confines of cubicles. A bicycle is freedom, a bicycle is friendly, and a bicycle is life.

San Jose is the largest city in Northern California, but we are hidden in the suburban sprawl. It's time to reclaim the South Bay, ride the streets, and make this place the active and exciting city we want it to be.

San Jose Bike Party is a place to ride bikes, make friends, and have a damned good time.

Come out, meet us, ride, get dressed up, raise some hell in this all too quiet city. I dare you.

We meet the third Friday of each month at Dick's Center parking lot (1400 S. Bascom Ave, 95128, near the Bascom VTA Light Rail station) at 8:30pm.
