Pants?
Still not invited.
This month, San Jose Bike Party is keeping it breezy with the No Pants Ride. Shorts, skirts, dresses, kilts, tutus, cheekies, costumes, or anything else that is technically not pants is welcome.
Join us for Test Ride #3 as we scout part of the route, check timing, and work out any issues before the main ride on Friday, August 21.
The theme is optional for the test ride, but questionable pants-free outfit choices are always encouraged.

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 let us know if you spot anything that needs attention.
See you at Tamien Station!
