This Sunday, the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition will host their 4th annual Family Biking Day in Golden Gate Park (and unlike at their recent Tour de Fat event, cops can’t ban kids from this one!).
The free event takes place from 11am until 3pm along JFK Drive at the 14th Avenue East Picnic Area (North of Stow Lake and east of the Transverse Drive overpass). Events include:
Bike Road-eo | 11am-2:30pm
A kid-size city used to educate the little ones in the ways of safe riding – helmets and loaner bikes included. All ages welcome.
Freedom From Training Wheels | 11:30am-1:30pm
A group effort to get our kids to ride on two-wheels.
Bike Scavenger Hunt | 12:30-2:00pm
A fun self-directed scavenger hunt, that will have your family riding around the car-free area of Golden Gate Park. This activity is designed for youth 8+ and parents to enjoy together.
Parents’ Mixer | 1-1:30pm
Chat with other biking parents, share stories and strategies, and learn family biking tips and tricks for your family.
Family Bike Parade | 2:30-3:00pm
What is a bike party without a bike ride? Biking families will end Family Day with a fun bike parade through the safe, car-free part of Golden Gate Park.
See the SFBC website for a complete list of events at Family Biking Day.

Will the kids be taught to race through red lights and stop signs, and otherwise ignore and disobey any rules of the road?
