Another Successful Solano Avenue Stroll for AS&R and the AHS MTB Team!!

Volunteers like Jean-Marie & Estrella engaged and chatted with passers-by all day! photos courtesy Amy Smolens

Albany Strollers & Rollers’ presence at the 48th (almost) Annual Solano Stroll on September 8th, 2024 was a great success!
We engaged with a variety of people of all ages from Albany, Berkeley, El Cerrito and Kensington, had productive conversations, distributed Check for Bikes clings and reflective bands, invited folks to our Anniversary Celebration and signed up 24 new AS&Rs! Our fiscal sponsor Bike East Bay shared our space and talked to people about regional issues, so our discussions ran the gamut of bike and ped topics. Volunteers enjoyed delicious lunches courtesy of locally owned small business Kim’s Café & Sandwiches (thanks, Cathy!)

The AHS Mountain Bike Team parked more than 250 bikes of all types, using AS&R’s valet racks!

Meanwhile, the Albany High School Mountain Bike Team athletes, coaches and parents parked about 250 bikes on AS&R’s valet racks, helping the Stroll reduce its carbon footprint! We at AS&R love collaborating with the next generation of cyclists, which these student-athletes represent.

We couldn’t have done it without all or our Volunteers: Tish Berlin, Jean-Marie Enjuto, Ian MacLeod, Ken McCroskey, Sylvia Paull, Estrella Sainburg, Amy Smolens and Eileen Walsh. AHS MTB coach and AS&R member Heike Abeck coordinated the stellar Bike Valet Parking effort in her usual well-organized fashion. Robert Prinz staffed the table for Bike East Bay. Whether you are a rookie or a veteran, every one of the volunteers contributed to another outstanding Solano Stroll. We are grateful to all the volunteers, community partners & sponsors who worked together to make AS&R’s participation in the Solano Stroll a success!

Finn & the AHS MTB Team are our future, the next generation of cyclists!

AS&R is proud to be an in-kind sponsor of the team

Thanks again to everyone who participated, stopped by, or signed up – hope to see you helping out at the 2025 Solano Stroll!
