Come out for an amazing and friendly evening of bike chat and sweet learning!

Amber & Ben loving the meeting

Bike Party’s monthly volunteer meetings are where it all happens, and where we need YOU to step up to make it even better.  Routes get planned and arranged on amazing test rides, but every other part of this unbelievable phenomenon is planned and discussed at meetings – fun ones, at that, full of wonderful bike people!

This month’s meeting is Wednesday, January 6th at 6:45pm at the centrally-located Sophisto Society!

Bike Partier Tim will teach us how to make affordable small sound systems that can go on ANY bike (no trailer needed!) with painless non-technical set-up!

We’ll discuss how to plan “bonus” rides and other events and we’ll get updates on bike events and news around the valley.

See the entire agenda as a PDF!

Most importantly, we’ll hang out and have fun with other wonderful volunteers and figure out ways to make all of our fun crazy ideas happen!

Join us for a Winter Wonderland party in at Sports Basement in Sunnyvale (Yelp for this location).  This is one of their sponsored discount nights for local bike organizations.  You get a discount and free food and drink, and Bike Party gets a cool venue for a gathering for a night.

It’s a low-key, fun vibe – not to mention a good chance to stock up on much-needed lights and fenders before the December SCARF ride towards LOS GATOS on Friday the 18th! (Actual ride details coming soon…)

Join us for the planning meeting at Orchard Valley Coffee in Campbell (349 E Campbell Ave)

We discuss route planning, themes, how to make the ride better/safer, and other fun events.

We request that all attendees have rode at least 2 rides before attending a meeting. (We want you to have educated and constructive input for future rides)

Bike party is organized by a handful of unpaid, working during our free time, bicycle loving volunteers. The more people who help with ride planning, the better the ride will become.

Please come!!

The agenda is in the comment section.

Help Bike Party plan its upcoming rides, as well as learn how to be involved during the rides to make them as amazing as possible!

Have you…
