This Sunday 5/4, we're teaming up with Oakland Community Kitchens to get burritos to our neighbors living on the streets. We could still use volunteers who can deliver via bike! Email [[email protected]] to get involved. It'll be fun, and we're grabbing margaritas and hanging out after.

Fun piece of history: 12 years ago, our crew first moved to Oakland's Jack London Square. This waterfront neighborhood has served as our headquarters since 2013 (before our rebrand!) Many thanks to all those who came before (and to those who stuck around ahem @prinzrob.bsky.social)

Missives from the other place, where they’re starting to acknowledge that the East Bay exists. FWIW the bridge trail supporters spent nearly $0 to build this coalition, whereas the opposition has dropped over $100k w little to show for it. Grassroots organizing gets the goods.

Richmond-San Rafael Bridge Trail Update: The April 3 hearing to close weekday bike/ped access has been postponed indefinitely — a temporary reprieve, won by thousands of voices speaking out in support of continued access. But this is not a victory yet.

UPDATE: The April 3rd Richmond-San Rafael Bridge trail vote is postponed again, this time indefinitely. Below is the info from the BCDC meeting agenda. This delay is good news, likely a result of all the folks who wrote in and expressed their concerns about the trail closure proposal. Thank you!

We had a great time at the @oaklandroots.bsky.social home opener on Saturday! We led a group ride to the Coliseum, and then parked dozens of bikes (and scooters + a skateboard, too) at our bike valet. Reminder: buy game tix at BikeEastBay.org/Roots and we get 20% of profits!

Emeryville could be studying Class IV Protected bike lanes from 36th to 47th streets on Adeline if the Sustainable Streetscapes contract is amended next meeting. Amazing how we can add protected bike lanes without much controversy as part of our paving plans.
