Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition’s 4th Annual Bike to the Future: Ride for Safer Streets

Join us for SVBC’s biggest fundraising event of the year on Sunday, October 6, at the Santa Clara County Building in San Jose. This ride is all about making El Camino Real safer for everyone. Our goal is to raise $60,000 to transform local infrastructure and awareness.

With expanded routes, including our first-ever century ride, there’s something for everyone, and ride support along all routes—from beginners to seasoned cyclists. Your support helps build safer streets for all road users. Let’s ride for a brighter, safer future!

Countdown Begins:

  • Select your route: 10 mi (family-friendly), 39 mi, 56 mi, or 100 mi options. Ride routes will delight and inspire all riders, offering plenty of refreshments and support.
  • Regular Registration: Tickets are available at $85. Children under 16 years of age ride for FREE.
  • Community Partner Registration: This option, available at a discounted rate of $50, is designed to ensure inclusivity and accessibility for all members of our community. It is open to local groups, community-based organizations, and non-profit staff.
  • Group Discount Ticket: Gather your colleagues or friends and take advantage of our group discount! Tickets are available for groups of 5 or more at $75 per person, offering even greater savings for your team.
  • Fundraising team minimum: Form a team of your friends or coworkers. Teams collectively have a fundraising commitment of $350 by December 31, 2024. Teams will have the chance to win prizes!
  • Spotlight Your Brand: Join our Community Expo. As a participating vendor at our community expo, you’ll enjoy perks, including recognition on event signage, our website, SVBC’s e-bulletin, press releases, and social media. Don’t miss out—secure your spot by Monday, September 20, and join our other partners, Stanford Medicine, AARP, Waymo, and more! Contact: felicia@bikesiliconvalley.org.
  • Discover Why Volunteering for the Ride is a Win! Volunteering at Bike to the Future connects you with like-minded people and helps create safer streets for all. Lend a hand and make a difference on Saturday, October 5, or Sunday, October 6. Sign up today!

It’s still possible to advocate, ride, and donate for safer streets in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties. Together, we can make a difference and create safer streets and a greener future for all!
