October 18, 20112 Comments on Pedalfest 2011 @ Jack London Square
“Pedalfest is a free celebration of bikes, cycling, food, family and fun
on Saturday, October 22, 2011 from 10 am – 5 pm at Jack London Square.
Pedalfest is for everyone –from the recreational rider and casual observer to the seasoned cyclist– to share in the joy of riding.”
Take your bike on the East Bay Ferry to get there, and your Ferry ride is free!
A full schedule of events and activities promises something for everyone. I’m especially looking forward to the trials demo and the vintage bike exhibit.
Opportunities for those interested in volunteering are still available.
I’ll be taking the Ferry from Alameda to attend this much-anticipated East Bay bicycle event. If you see me there, be sure and say, “Hi!”
