Changwon Bike Party !!!: July 2013

What is Bike Party?

Changwon Bike Party is a group bike ride open to any and all bike riders and Nubija subscribers. It happens the 2nd Saturday of every month. Every Bike Party has a different starting point and a different route and is typically around 12-20 KM. Also every ride has a costumed theme! Bike Party is about engaging with your biking and local community. Bike Party allows us to explore and engage with neighborhoods and even cities that we might not explore or engage with otherwise. Bike Party is first and foremost a PARTY! There is music, and costumes and all kinds of celebrating!! So dress up and get on your bikes and ride!!!

Here is a video I made of what a bike party looks like: East Bay Bike Party

I'm out of shape, can I actually do this?

Bike Party is not a race. Bike Party is not even much of a workout. We have group stops every about every 8 km where can hang out, blast some music for 20 or so minutes so you may have time to rest. Most people have no trouble completing the ride, although your legs and butt might be feeling it in the morning!

I don't have a bike.

I have a friend- can (s)he come?

YES!! Bike Party is for EVERYONE!

What if it's raining?

Bike Party is a rain or shine event. Bring the right gear and you'll be ok.

I have a question -- Also, how can I get involved?

How We Ride

If you follow these eight rules, Bike Party will be safe and a positive place for riders, drivers, pedestrians, and the community

1. Stay in the Right LaneNEVER ride against oncoming traffic.
2. Leave Nothing Behind
3. Stop at Red Lights.
4. Ride Straight, Ride Predictability.
5. Roll Past Conflict.
6. Leave No One Behind.
7. Ride Sober! It’s illegal and dangerous to ride a bicycle inebriated.
8. Communicate to Fellow Riders! (We need your help to remind those who aren’t following the rules!)

All participants ride at their own risk.

Remember, you are responsible for your own behavior.
