Richmond-San Rafael Bridge Anniversary Ride
November 11, 2023 @ 9:30 am - 2:30 pm
Event Navigation
This November marks the fourth anniversary of the pathway on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. To celebrate, MCBC and our friends at Marin Cyclists will be co-leading a ride across the bridge on November 11th.
But we won’t be alone! Richmond-based bike advocacy and education group Rich City Rides is organizing their own ride across the bridge, starting at Richmond BART. We’ll meet them at the start of their ride and join as they ride from Richmond to Marin. Rich City’s ride for the pathway’s third anniversary had hundreds of riders and was a total blast!
Register for the ride on the Marin Cyclists website linked here. We’ll meet at 9:45 AM at Larkspur Ferry and roll at 10 AM. Expect to get back to Larkspur by 1 PM. We hope to see you there!
If you haven’t had a chance to read it, check out MCBC’s recent blog post about the future of the pathway and how we can fight to keep it.
