Coordinated District Pedal Pools

We all know that riding in a pack is way more fun than riding alone. On the morning of Bike to Work Day, you will be able to meet up with your elected official and ride with district pride down to City Hall for the pancake breakfast.

Pancake Breakfast at City Hall – Frank Ogawa Plaza 7am – 9:30am

It’s tough to start riding on an empty stomach, but knowing that you’ll be biking toward a stack of flapjacks should be enough motivation to get you going in the morning. At City Hall, in Frank H. Ogawa Plaza, hundreds of bicyclists will enjoy:

  • A pancake breakfast
  • Free Starbucks coffee
  • Free valet bike parking by Bike East Bay until 6pm
  • Free bike safety checks by LuckyDuck
  • A raffle with great prizes from local bike shops and businesses
  • A transportation fair to highlight the bike-friendly programs of local agencies and businesses.
