Events

BikeAlameda gets involved all over the island with events to help get people to ride their bikes, and just for fun.

Upcoming Events

Mon, Feb 20 (7:00 PM - 9:00 PM) Estuary Crossing Shuttle & Bike Plan Update Committee meeting
Please join us to plan our involvement in the shuttle launch.

This shuttle will begin service on Monday, August 15 and we want to be ready.
We still have publicity to plan, posters to distribute and more organizations to contact.

We want to make sure that as many people as possible know about this shuttle and tell their friends, too.

There is also a ribbon cutting ceremony on August 15 at 10AM. At our meeting we will be discussing our participation in the ribbon cutting ceremony.

Where: Otaez Restaurant; on Webster between Lincoln and Pacific. We usually meet at the tables in the back of the restaurant.
Thu, Mar 1 (7:30 PM - 9:00 PM) BikeAlameda Board Meeting
If you can contribute skills to our board, please consider talking to one of our board members about how you can contribute. There are ten board meetings a year. Plus choose something that you are passionate about and pursue that for us. It could be anything from 'building our membership', 'business liaison', 'estuary crossing' or advocacy, working with the schools and children.



If you think you might be interested please contact any member of the Board with any questions or concerns. We’d be delighted to discuss it with you. Or if you think you know someone who might be interested either in serving as a Board Member or as Treasurer, you’d like us to contact, please let us know. Our contact emails are our firstname@bikealameda.org (eg. bonnie@bikealameda.org).



We've updated our website page with a complete list of volunteer opportunities. Please visit and see if you can donate some time and have fun with us, too.

In Alameda, we staff a number of "energizer stations" to provide goodies and advice for new (and returning) bike commuters on their way to work. . We can always use volunteers for the committee.
Walk and Roll to School Week (annually, in October)
One day a year, communities all over california pull out all the stops to encourage people to try bicycling to work. In Alameda, help school PTAs and the Walk n Roll committees with ideas and information to encourage new biciclists be safe. We have a flyer from Transform to help you get started.
Real Tour d'Alameda
Tuesday mornings we encourage realtors to hop on their bikes to cruise among the new houses for sale. These realtor open houses are a great opportunity to ride with coworkers.
