Community Rides
We’re defining a “community ride” as a ride open to anyone, with no membership or registration required and no fees to participate. It’s always a good idea to contact the organizers before your first ride as these details change frequently.
- Taco Tuesday meets at 5:30 p.m. every Tuesday in Santa Rosa. About 8 miles with dinner at the Mitote Food Park in Roseland and ice cream at the end. Contact Juan Chavez.
- Hella Joy Ride is a monthly mountain bike ride for women in Annadel State Park.
- First Friday at Five meets at 5 p.m. the first Friday of each month at Walnut Park in Petaluma. Contact Safe Streets Petaluma.
- BikePetaluma often holds community rides.
- Move! Healdsburg holds regular community rides.

- Sunday Funday rides meet at 10 am on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month at Keiser Park in Windsor.
