Come meet our new Executive Director Renee Rivera from Oakland and our new board member Fast Freddie Rodriguez while supporting the East Bay Bicycle Coalition’s work to “Bridge the Bay” and connect Oakland to San Francisco with a world-class bike path on the Bay Bridge. Mingle with decision-makers from across the East Bay and hundreds of your bike friends and bid on some great auction items at the David Brower Center in Downtown Berkeley.
New Live auction items include the Trek Wingra commute bike and a Raleigh Retro Special, and beautiful bike photograph prints of Linda Svenson. Bid on the chance to take a private bike tour of the East Bay hills with Tour de France racer Freddie Rodriguez. Other auction items include the Specialized Globe Daily 1, Dahon Speedo Uno, Yuba Mundo Bike, Viva Bellissimo, Marin commute bike, REI Novara Buzz, Holly Bike Hitch Rack, Adam’s Original Bike Trailor, and more.
Enjoy Daniel Yasmin, the bike rapper and virtuoso drummer, who entertains accompanied by Paul Bertin with their homemade bicycle part band. Hear from Mayors Mark Green of Union City and Tom Bates of Berkeley about the future of bicycling in the East Bay. All we need is you to make this the most talked about bike party of the season.
This event benefits our advocacy efforts to build political support for completing the bikeway on the Bay Bridge and to make all of the East Bay more bike-friendly. Thank you for supporting us.
