2013 Pedalfest

Pedalfest rolls into Jack London Square to celebrate all-things cycling at the Bay Area-s premier bicycle festival. This annual event will pack the waterfront with more than 20,000 biking enthusiasts enjoying bicycle-themed entertainment, food and exhibits. Free to attend, Pedalfest-goers will enjoy cycling daredevils performing in a 30-foot banked wooden Whiskeydrome; eye-popping two-wheeled stunts by pro riders Mike Steidley and Chris Clark; a Rock the Bike pedal-powered stage featuring live music; Battle of the Bay BMX Competition; Oaklandish-s kids bicycle parade; folding bike races; bike trivia dunk tank; a bicycle rodeo for children; pedal-powered food; and a dazzling collection of new, vintage and handmade bikes. Additionally, a selection of beers will be available from New Belgium Brewing Co., with all proceeds going to support the advocacy work of the East Bay Bicycle Coalition. Visitors can bike, ferry or drive to Jack London Square. Bicyclists will receive free ferry rides with their bicycles, courtesy of the San Francisco Bay Ferry. The East Bay Bicycle Coalition will also offer free bicycle valet services to Pedalfest visitors. For additional information about Pedalfest and/or to volunteer, visit www.pedalfestjacklondon.com.
