Wear your REDS, WHITES AND BLUES, and enjoy the best night out San Jose has to offer!

Guerillaz in Da Mixx and David Bu Hao will be bringing you the regroup beats at the mobile dance floor. We’ll also be running our #LightMeUp free safety light distribution. If you don’t have a front and rear light for your bike, come see the Bike Party Birds at the start, 7:30PM, to get yours. Lights this month are provided by your donations to San Jose Bike Party, which have allowed us to distribute over 1000 lights so far for this program. Want to help make cycling safer in San Jose? Chip in over at our Donation Page.

And best of all, for your enjoyment, porta potties!

Be visible and bring some water. We also encourage cyclists to ride to the start rather than drive; reducing auto traffic and parking demand.

Everyone is welcome to attend this event, but please, read and follow our “How We Ride” guidelines to keep everyone safe and to keep San Jose Bike Party rolling!
