Want to ride more but don’t feel you quite have the skills?
Here’s a FREE bicycle skills class given by Bike East Bay (formerly East Bay Bicycle Coalition.)
Learn basic rules of the road, how to share the road with cars on busy streets, how to equip your bicycle, lock your bike, fit your helmet, and avoid crashes by riding predictably, visibly, and communicating with other road users by your actions and signals. For adults and teens, no bike needed.
Every attendee will receive a free reflective vest for participating!
The class is FREE but requires registration, so please register here.
Bring your kids to Albany Police Activity League’s Annual Bike Rodeo!

Free bicycle helmets will be given to youth participants.
Rodeo activities will include bike inspections, safety information, and a bicycle safety course. The goal of the bicycle rodeo is to encourage riders to wear helmets on every ride, to give young cyclists basic skills for on-road riding, and to teach them the rules of the road to help keep them safe. This event focuses on young riders in elementary and middle school.
AS&R will again be working with kids, showing them how to ride their bikes safely and responsibly.
We’ll also have our ”Check for Bikes” clings on hand for parents…and the famous Bicycle Blender so everyone can pedal-power a delicious smoothie!
PLEASE VOLUNTEER: We could definitely use some help running the bike blender station and talking to parents and kids. Any takers, please? If so, please contact Amy Smolens or Ken McCroskey.

Albany Strollers & Rollers is excited to be teaming with our neighbors to the north, Rich City Rides, to provide FREE Bicycle Valet Parking at the two-day Berkeley Kite Festival.
Come on down and enjoy the Festival where the earth, wind, and sky combine to create an unequaled festival experience. Food, music, arts & crafts, a new “kids’ zone,” food – and yes… plenty of kites!! Lots to do for the whole family!
During the past 29 years, the Berkeley Kite Festival has developed a soaring reputation as one of the premier free family festivals on the West Coast.
And we’ll take care of your bicycle while you and your family enjoy all the activities the BKF has to offer! We’re expecting 1000 bikes over the course of the weekend so come join the fun.
Want to help out? We can still use a few volunteers to help park bikes – the cool thing is that you get to see the kites flying while you’re at our table!
Thanks.
