🐈‍⬛🐾 9 LIVES ON 2 WHEELS – TEST RIDE #1 🐾🚲

Friday, August 28, 2026

Meet at 7:30 PM

Roll out at 8:00 PM

Start Location:

Roosevelt Park – San Jose

Ride Leader: Tasha

Route: Coming soon!

Cats have nine lives.

We’d rather not use any of them on a test ride. 😹

Join us for Test Ride #1 as we scout the route for September’s 9 Lives on 2 Wheels, check timing, test our regroup locations, and sniff out any problems before the main ride on Friday, September 18.

The theme is optional for the test ride but cat ears are lightweight and surprisingly aerodynamic. Just saying. 😼

What is a Test Ride?

Test rides help us fine-tune the route before Bike Party. We check timing, regroup locations, traffic flow, road conditions, and identify any potential issues along the way.

They’re also a great opportunity to meet other riders, get involved behind the scenes, and help shape the final ride experience.

Please bring:

• Front and rear lights

• Water

• A flat repair kit if you have one

• A positive attitude and a willingness to help

Ride safe, ride predictably, and keep all nine lives intact.

See you at Roosevelt Park! 🐈‍⬛🚲
