Come join the Piedmont Bike Bus, led by Piedmont Unplugged, at our launch roll-out on Friday, Jan. 9. Meet at Bear Park on the corner of King and Hampton at 8 a.m. and roll out at 8:10 a.m.

Got bike concerns? Ryan Moore from Oakland Trek will be on hand to check your bikes. Parents: Want to join? You can, but feel free to drop your kids to encourage that independence. We’ll have a few experienced parents riding with the group, along with a dedicated PPD police officer so kids can learn street safety and the rules of the road while en route.

What’s needed?

• Helmets and bike required
• Kids must know how to ride a bike with a backpack on
• Bike parking located on Havens school property – no bike lock needed

How does my kid get back?

• Ride home with friends or solo
• Head to Piedmont Park for Free Play Friday and pick them up later
• Throw the bike in your car or on your bike rack
• For the first Bike Bus day, we will organize a Bike Bus back to Bear Park leaving the front of Havens at 3:15 pm (please be on time for pick up).
