The Biketopia auction is LIVE, and the competition is already heating up. New items are being added every week, so don’t wait too long to jump in! Browse a few featured goodies below, or see the full collection at BikeEastBay.org/Biketopia. We’re resharing a few tips if it’s your first Biketopia:

📲 This is a silent auction, and you make bids online or through your phone (there are text alerts you can set up to track your bids)

⏳ The auction is live and active NOW, and will run until 8pm on September 16

🎟️ Biketopia is our annual fundraising celebration. It’s a ticketed event with food and music, and a chance to see all the items in-person. But you are NOT required to attend to bid and win!

💗 All the money raised through ticket sales and auction bids supports our work of making the East Bay a great place to bike!

Love this option--- if you're going to Levi's Stadium for the Karol G or Usher concerts, consider this alternative transportation option. No traffic or parking stress. You could even pair your bike with your trip, as our friends at Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition typically offer free bike valet!

Help spread the word: let's get more of this normalized!

Join Bike East Bay for a family-friendly, no-drop group ride on the Hayward Regional Shoreline. Bring your binoculars for a bird watching expedition led by Snowy Plover Biologist Parker Kaye. The ride starts at South Hayward BART and ends at Yoyo’s Botaneria for a community gathering with free snacks and beverages for purchase.

All are welcome— this is a no drop ride! But your RSVP helps us get a rough headcount, plus we’ll send you a reminder message closer to the date. RSVP and see the route details at https://bikeeastbay.org/event/2026-group-ride-bikes-birds-botanas/

We've got more Mobile Meal Team shifts with Community Kitchens coming up! Join us Sunday, Aug. 30 and/or Sunday, Sept. 27 from 12-2pm.

This is a monthly opportunity to mobilize by bike and feed our neighbors. Bring a way to carry homemade meals— panniers and cargo bikes work great, backpacks and baskets work too! We usually grab a bite to eat together afterwards, so plan to hang out if you're free.

We've nearly reached our goal, but not quite! Tomorrow is your last chance to become a Bike East Bay member, at any amount you'd like!

Typically, membership is $35 annually, but we want to make sure ANYBODY can join in and claim their place in the movement for safe streets.

Members get discounts at bike shops, access to our bike trailer + book lending library, and invites to special events throughout the year. Plus, the satisfying feeling of knowing that you're investing in your local bike coalition working to make our streets the best they can be.
